The only documentation we currently have for this feature is in a standalone README file that can be found here: doc/how_to/README_gravityPerturbation_bis.txt Could you please add a note about this new feature in the manual where you may feel relevant (probably with a clarification that this differs from Martin Roland's work on gravity integrals/field calculation) and request the users of this feature to cite the following article.

Currently I’m using Specfem3D Cartesian for my research. I’m wondering is it possible to trigger an earthquake on a fault using a CMTSOLUTION source? I tried several simulations by setting a critically stressed fault and a CMTSOLUTION point source. The source (Mw~6 Right-lateral strike slip) was located about only 1km away from the fault surface. But it turned out the stresses on the fault surface(dynamic slip-weakening) remain unchanged. Based on these tests, I supposed that a CMTSOLUTION won’t change the stress level on a fault surface. Is it correct? Or did I miss something here? Thanks!

I need to obtain surface vertical velocities with 2 km step to the North (+3000 km) and South (-3000 km) from the epicenter along longitude of epicenter, so I just get synthetic seismograms for every such point from SPECFEM3D-Globe. Here is a result of global simulation SPECFEM3D-Globe for NEX_XI=96 at some time of simulation (20mHz-example figure). The simulation looks good. [cid:359B6E2D-CF72-4073-9B82-0C3F41DE4DA5 at db.erau.edu] Now, I do the same simulation for NEX_XI=240 and I get a very slowly decreasing rise/drop near the epicenter. Here are several figures for different times (50mhz-1.32, 50mhz-2.23, 50mhz-4.02, 50mhz-6.22 files; time is shown on figures - minutes from event): [cid:3A1F3E84-4D5B-4A5D-88F8-FA84951A2258 at db.erau.edu] [cid:07AEA2D3-D8F6-492F-B7B9-B69421FAAFB3 at db.erau.edu] [cid:B4FB22E9-6D51-42C0-8C9F-5D1B07AF74F5 at db.erau.edu] [cid:DDD98173-74A2-4468-BEF0-AEF0E7BFE0C4 at db.erau.edu] So it doesn’t look like sinusoid, but slowly decreasing rise/drop (to the left and right from epicenter respectfully). It takes about 10-12 minutes to fully suppress this. I do not have it for NEX_XI=96 simulation, but for shorter period simulation it starts to appear. I tried different Earth models, but seems it doesn’t play any role. Does it have physical nature? And more general question - how appropriate SPECFEM3D-Globe to simulate velocities at the epicenter and positions very close to it?

However, if you are in the mesh element of the source, or very close to it, you may get spurious Hourglass-like modes, see Schmicker et al. 2014 (attached). When they are present, getting rid of them requires changing the mesh (for instance randomizing it) near the source. Best regards, Dimitri.

I actually did similar things before by mistake --- I forgot to turn off the point source when doing a dynamic rupture simulation and see the circular stress pattern on the fault. We also did the work of one fault rupture triggering another using the code (See Bai & Ampuero 2017 https://doi.org/10.1002/2017JB014848 ), the stress transfer is not a problem as is shown in Fig 6 & 7.

Kangchen, can you give me more explanations on ‘fault-node splitting’? Do you mean the split-node technique used during the mesh process? I followed the instructions provided in the specfem3d manual to create a Cubit mesh file. The mesh works well for a ‘step-over’ scenario and I did observe the  dynamic stress transfer. Back to the test mentioned in my previous email, where I put a point source (Mw~6 Right-lateral strike slip) about only 1km away from the fault surface. I also observed stress changes, but with a magnitude of ~  0.0682Pa. Considering the initial stress level of 82.1MPa, I suspected these stress changes are numerical? Also is it possible to implement both dynamic and kinematic fault in a model, i.e. one fault is Kinematic and the other one is dynamic. Thanks !

Best, Ge From: Surendra Nadh Somala Date: Tuesday, April 10, 2018 at 3:01 AM To: Ge Li Cc: Kangchen Bai , Dimitri Komatitsch , , Subject: Re: [CIG-SEISMO] [Specfem3D Cartesian]- Using a CMTSOLUTION source to trigger a critically-stressed fault Dear Ge, Currently, the implementation is such that all the fault in a particular simulation should be either Kinematic or Dynamic. Nevertheless, you can run a kinematic simulation, observe the stress changes on the other fault and setup a dynamic rupture simulation based on the updated stresses. Btw, what is the magnitude of the point source (CMTSOLUTION) you have put in your simulation?

Kangchen, can you give me more explanations on ‘fault-node splitting’? Do you mean the split-node technique used during the mesh process? I followed the instructions provided in the specfem3d manual to create a Cubit mesh file. The mesh works well for a ‘step-over’ scenario and I did observe the dynamic stress transfer. Back to the test mentioned in my previous email, where I put a point source (Mw~6 Right-lateral strike slip) about only 1km away from the fault surface. I also observed stress changes, but with a magnitude of ~ 0.0682Pa. Considering the initial stress level of 82.1MPa, I suspected these stress changes are numerical? Also is it possible to implement both dynamic and kinematic fault in a model, i.e. one fault is Kinematic and the other one is dynamic. Thanks !

You should see dynamic stress changes as the wave goes across the fault. I actually did similar things before by mistake --- I forgot to turn off the point source when doing a dynamic rupture simulation and see the circular stress pattern on the fault. We also did the work of one fault rupture triggering another using the code (See Bai & Ampuero 2017 https://doi.org/10.1002/2017JB014848 ), the stress transfer is not a problem as is shown in Fig 6 & 7. If you do not see stress changes, there must be something wrong with the settings. I suspect the most plausible scenario is that the fault node is not split in which case the stress remain constant anyhow. Let me know if you have more questions.

Yes, if you want to mimic an extended source using a kinematic source model, you can use many CMTSOLUTION sources that are triggered at different times and at slightly different locations (see e.g. the discussion about extended sources around equation (A12) of http://komatitsch.free.fr/preprints/GJI_1999_figure16_error_fixed_equation3_typo_fixed.pdf, and the way we mimic a Hamming quasi-plane wave using 1000 such sources in http://komatitsch.free.fr/preprints/Ultrasonics_Moysan_2016.pdf figure 5). If you want a dynamic rupture source model, i.e. something more sophisticated, the package can do that based on the great work of Jean-Paul Ampuero, Surendra Nadh Somala, Kangchen Bai and other people in the community, they can give you more details (they will know much more about this than I do :-) Let me thus cc them.

I’m wondering is it possible to trigger an earthquake on a fault using a CMTSOLUTION source? I tried several simulations by setting a critically stressed fault and a CMTSOLUTION point source. The source (Mw~6 Right-lateral strike slip) was located about only 1km away from the fault surface. But it turned out the stresses on the fault surface(dynamic slip-weakening) remain unchanged. Based on these tests, I supposed that a CMTSOLUTION won’t change the stress level on a fault surface. Is it correct? Or did I miss something here? Thanks!

The simulation looks good. >>> Now, I do the same simulation for NEX_XI=240 and I get a very slowly decreasing rise/drop near the epicenter. Here are several figures for different times (50mhz-1.32, 50mhz-2.23, 50mhz-4.02, 50mhz-6.22 files; time is shown on figures - minutes from event): >>> So it doesn’t look like sinusoid, but slowly decreasing rise/drop (to the left and right from epicenter respectfully). It takes about 10-12 minutes to fully suppress this. >>> I do not have it for NEX_XI=96 simulation, but for shorter period simulation it starts to appear.

Whether you can run on a desktop will depend on your max frequency; usually realistic 3D runs require a small parallel machine, or a large desktop (we have one here with 192 GB of RAM on which we run small 3D cases).

I am wondering if you have codes dealing with area/volume integral of kernel in the case of external meshing. I really appreciate it if you can help me with that.
