1 |
climate, oil reservoir are related more mature fields
|
2 |
traditional approach based on "fundamental laws" limited
-
Need close coupling with observation
|
3 |
Seismic wave propagation through complex media successful
|
4 |
fault rupture immature - why?
|
5 |
Has 6 major questions to be answered
|
6 |
Need to standardize problems
|
7 |
Encourage collaboration in numerical simulations of earthquake system
-
5 proposed areas: Seismic Wave propagation, Stress transfer, Rupture dynamics on single faults(quite sophisticated 3D calculations now), Earthquake sequences in fault systems, Damage mechanics
