Main purpose of GeoELSE
Studying 2D/3D linear and non-linear visco-elastic seismic wave propagation in
heterogeneous media, including within the same numerical model:
- seismic source (extended fault / plane wave with arbitrary incidence angle)
- propagation path
- complex geological structures / SSI effects

Conclusions
 3D numerical simulations of earthquake ground motion in near-fault conditions,
accounting for complex geological and morphological conditions, may provide
realistic seismic scenarios, up to frequencies of 2 – 3 Hz.
 The frequency limit is mainly related to insufficient details in the source kinematic
models, as well as on the local geology description. A moderate random variability of
the kinematic source parameters may significantly improve the high-frequency
energy radiation, improving as well the agreement with observed records during
L’Aquila earthquake.
 The typical features of long period ground motion amplification and propagation of
surface waves within sedimentary basins in Central Italy, such as in Gubbio, can be
captured well by 3D numerical simulations.
 Generation of realistic earthquake ground motion scenarios for future damaging
earthquakes within complex tectonic and geological environments is becoming more
and more feasible, also for engineering applications.
