High-resolution Ground Motion Simulation in the Near-Field and Mountainous Areas : Application to the 2016 Amatrice-Norcia Seismic Sequence

Durée : 2018 -
Contact à ISTerre : Emeline Maufroy

Founded by INSU

The goals of the project are :
1. To understand the physical processes that led to the extremely high-ground motions recorded during the 2016 Amatrice-Norcia seismic sequence (Central Apennines)
2. To develop robust proxys to characterize topographic site effects
3. To develop new techniques to image the rupture process in complex media and at high-frequency
4. To develop numerical tools to model high-resolution ground motions in the vicinity of seismic faults and in areas with a complex topography
