HPC Experience
· Utilized the Rockfish high-performance computing cluster at the Advanced Research Computing Facility at Johns Hopkins University
· Built and compiled eleven high-resolution, high-frequency (<1.5 Hz) 3D shaking models using SW4 2.01 software and the Rockfish system
· Analyzed Rockfish's overall performance with SW4 software and compared low-res MacBook Pro simulations to Rockfish simulations
· Results enable increased accuracy for seismic analysis, improved seismic hazard estimates and preparedness and provides a starting point for any subsequent seismology research that may choose to utilize high-performance computing
