Project Abstract
 The SCEC Rupture Dynamics Code Validation Workshop was held March 1, 2017, at SCEC Headquarters on the campus of the University of Southern California, in Los Angeles. A total of 38 people participated, including 23 in the meeting room and 15 remote-access. This year our workshop attendees, both remote and in-person, included scientists from five countries (Germany, Japan, New Zealand, Switzerland, U.S.A.). More than one-half (20) of our workshop participants were either students or postdocs. Many thanks to Tran Huynh and her team for all of their work that helped make this workshop happen.
Intellectual Merit The SCEC workshop is the primary meeting of our SCEC/USGS Dynamic Rupture Code group and other parties interested in computational earthquake and ground motion simulations.
