Estimation of model parameter of Sumatra earthquake using empirical Green’s function technique and generation of hypothetical earthquake scenario for Andaman Island, India

Joshi, A.; Kumari, Pushpa; Kumar, Sushil; Sharma, M.; … - In: Natural Hazards 62 (2012) 3, pp. 1081-1108

Empirical Green’s function (EGF) technique is considered to be most effective technique for simulation of ground motions due to a finite earthquake source. In the present paper, this technique has been used to simulate ground motion due to a great earthquake. The coastal region of Sumatra...
