1SCEC/CME Project Year 4CyberShake Project

- 22 June 2005
2CyberShake Project Create a Seismic Hazard
Analysis (SHA) Intensity Measure Relationship
(SHA) using 3D Synthetic Seismic Waveforms
(replacing the use of an attenuation
relationship).Calculate hazard curves using this
IMR
3CyberShake Background
- Goals of SCEC/CME are to utilize a more
physics-based approach to SHA, and utilizing
Pathway 2 as IMR has been discussed frequently. - January 2005, SCEC/CME Group wrote a TeraGrid
allocation request for Project to use Wave
Propagation Simulations to calculate Hazard
Curves for LA Basin. - Proposal was accepted and awarded 145K SUs
(TG-BCS050001N) on TeraGrid. Award good through
March, 2006. - Additional Service Units awarded from USC HPCC.
4Various IMR types (subclasses)
Attenuation Relationships
Gaussian dist. is assumed mean and std. from
various parameters
IMT, IML(s)
Multi-Site IMRs compute joint prob. of exceeding
IML(s) at multiple sites (e.g., Wesson
Perkins, 2002)

Vector IMRs compute joint prob. of exceeding
multiple IMTs (Bazzurro Cornell, 2002)

suite of synthetic seismograms

maxLat36.1858, maxLon-115.70
6Ruptures in ERF within 200KM of USC
43227 Ruptures in Frankel02 ERF with M 5.0 or
larger within 200km of USC
7SCEC/CME PSHA TeraGrid Project
TeraGrid Allocation Request Submitted to run 481
simulations to use AWM as IMR. Incorporates
Pathway 1, Pathway 2, Workflow tools, Data
Management
8Ruptures in ERF within 200KM of USC
- In order to simulate the number of required
Ruptures, a reciprocity-based approach has been
selected. - Reciprocity approach supports many ruptures
- Because significant calculations are required for
each site, limitation becomes number of sites. - Output will be hazard curves. If enough sites are
run, a hazard map will be created.
9Example Hazard Curve
Site USC ERF Frankel-02 IMR Field IMT Peak
Velocity Time Period 50 Years
10Five Items in Hazard Curve to be Used in
CyberShake
- ERF Frankel-02
- IMR Reciprocity-based waveforms (horizontals
only) - Sites USC (Basin), Pasadena (Rock), TBD
- IMT Spectral Acceleration at 3 Seconds
- (calculated by attenuation relationships
including Abrahamson, A Silva, Campbell,
Field, Sadigh) - Time Period 50 years
11All Calculations are Repeated Per Site
- Unit of Planning for CyberShake is Site
- We run a series of calculations for each site.
- Once all site calculations are completed, we can
produce a hazard curve for that site. - First site is USC (Basin) Second Site is PAS
(Rock) - Additional site selection is TBD.
12Elements of the CyberShake Computation
13Elements of the CyberShake Computation
14CyberShake Strain Green Tensor AWM
- Large (TeraShake Scale) forward calculations for
each site. - SHA typically ignore rupture gt 200km from site,
so this is used as cutoff distance. - 20km buffer distance is used around edges of
volume to reduce edge effects - 65km depth to support frequencies of interest
- Volume is 440km x 440km x 65km at 200m spacing
- 1.573 Billion mesh pts
- Simulation time 180 seconds
- Volumetric Data Saved for 2 horizontal
simulations - Estimated Storage per site is 11.5 TB (9.0 data
2.5 checkpoint files)
15CyberShake Rupture Descriptions
- Rupture description must be exchanged between ERF
and Pathway 2 AWM codes (Strain Green Tensor
Codes). - Rupture description will be generated with a
program (RuptureWithSlipTimeFunctionGenerator)
that inputs ERF description and output R.Graves
Rupture Description (with variations) - Rupture variations are TBD. Maybe strike ,
strike -, dip , dip 1. - Pseudo-dynamic code may be integrated to
investigate its impact on hazard curves.
16CyberShake Computational Elements
17CyberShake Seismogram Extraction
- Requires calculation of 100,000 seismogram for
each site. - Estimate Rupture Variations scale by magnitude
- Mw 5.0 x 1 20,450
- Mw 6.0 x 10 216,990
- Mw 7.0 x 100 106,900
- Mw 8.0 x 1000 9,000
- ------------------
- 353,340 Ruptures
- x 2 components
- Current estimated number of seismogram files per
site is 43,000 (due to combining components and
variations into single file per rupture). -
18CyberShake Workflow Tools
- SCEC/CME Grid-based scientific workflow system
required to work at this scale. - Access to distributed computing resources
- Large scale file management
- High performance and high throughput computing.

20CyberShake Issues
- Need exchange of rupture between ERF and STG
codes. (Rupture format, Rupture Variation
Generator) - Which codes to use (Zhao modification of Olsen
AWM, Graves) - What IM Types can we calculate (is SA 3.0s only
IMT useful) - Which results are worth saving (Green Tensors,
Seismograms, curves) - Site selection strategy
- Need for additional SUs
- Integration of all computation elements into
workflow. - How to present non-visual results.
