Fig. 13From: Using a grid-search approach to validate the Graves–Pitarka broadband simulation methodComparison of rupture length (top row) and mean rupture width (bottom row) for the five lowest misfit realizations for each of the 12 validation events with published relations: HB02 is from Hanks and Bakun (2002), S09 is from Shaw (2009), and L14 is from Leonard (2014). The events are further divided into strike- and oblique-slip (left column) and reverse-slip (right column). The gray shading in the rupture length panels indicates the standard deviation estimate from L14, and the yellow shading for the rupture width panels indicates the ± 25% variation used in the simulations. For rupture width, symbols are plotted at the mean value and the vertical bars indicate the minimum and maximum widths across the five lowest misfit realizations. Rupture length is not varied across realizationsBack to article page
