Description

The Structural Representation group aims to develop unified, three-dimensional representations of active faults and earth structure (velocity, density, etc.) for use in fault-system analysis, ground-motion prediction, and hazard assessment. Current efforts focus on making improvements to existing community models (CVM, CVM-H, CFM, CBM) and evaluating alternative structural representations. This group also supports the use of these models in various aspects of earthquake science by other working groups in SCEC.
