gov.usgs.earthquake.nshmp.gmm.TavakoliPezeshk_2005

All Implemented Interfaces:

ConvertsMag, GroundMotionModel

public class TavakoliPezeshk_2005
extends Object
implements GroundMotionModel, ConvertsMag

Implementation of the Tavakoli & Pezeshk (2005) ground motion model for stable continental regions. This implementation matches that used in the 2008 USGS NSHMP and comes in two additional magnitude converting (mb to Mw) flavors to support the 2008 central and eastern US model.

Note: Direct instantiation of GroundMotionModels is prohibited. Use Gmm.instance(Imt) to retrieve an instance for a desired Imt.

Implementation note: Mean values are clamped per GmmUtils.ceusMeanClip(Imt, double).
