Modeling of Strong Ground Motion Within the Baikal Rift Zone: The Irkutsk Case
The Baikal Rift Zone is seismically active and each well recorded strong earthquake (for example, as the Kultukskoe earthquake (South of Baikal), on August 27, 2008, with Mw = 6.3) is the reason to refine existing models for seismic hazard estimates. There are several approaches to study strong grou...

| Summary: | The Baikal Rift Zone is seismically active and each well recorded strong earthquake (for example, as the Kultukskoe earthquake (South of Baikal), on August 27, 2008, with Mw = 6.3) is the reason to refine existing models for seismic hazard estimates. There are several approaches to study strong ground motion, and one of them is to model synthetic accelerograms to reconstruct the rupture process. In this paper we are mostly interested in calculating accelerograms for the city of Irkutsk, considering source spectra with two corner frequencies, primarily, to reconstruct impact from the Kultukskoe earthquake. |
