| Abstract: | Integrated earthquake simulation (IES) is a seamless simulation of the three earthquake processes, namely, the earthquake hazard process, the earthquake disaster process and the anti-disaster action process. High performance computing (HPC) is essential if IES, or particularly, the simulation of the earthquake disaster process is applied to an urban area in which 104∼6 structures are located. IES is enhanced with parallel computation, and its performance is examined, so that virtual earthquake disaster simulation will be made for a model of an actual city by inputting observed strong ground motion. It is shown that parallel IES has fairly good scalability even when advanced non-linear seismic structure analysis is used. |
