demos

[Mohamed El-Gabry]

Dear OQers
I Just installed openquake on ubuntu 11,04 machine and when I try to
run of the demos

$ openquake --config_file demos/simple_fault_demo_hazard/config.gem
--output_type=xml

I receive this error

Dear Muharem
Aslam Alykom.
Sorry for bothering you again
But I would like to know whether OQ do perform smoothed seismicity
assessment (Fankel 1995).
I need to know if openquake allow zone free calculation or smoothing
seismicity or not.
Also I would like to ask about irc channel whether is it still running or not
Thanks for all
Mohamed,

Hi Mohamed,

The IRC channel is still running. You can find us on irc.freenode.net. The channel name is #openquake.

I will have to defer to one of our hazard scientists to answer your question about smooth seismicity.

Cheers,

-Lars

No problem.

That I cannot answer, but will ask our hazard scientist Dr. Damiano
Monelli to comment on this.

Yes, the irc channel is live and operational.

Dear Mohamed,

the modellers' toolkit (that's where you should expect to find something
similar to the Frankel's method for the calculation of smoothed
seismicity) currently doesn't contain this methodology. We're planning
to add this feature within the next few months.

On the contrary, Openquake already support seismic sources representing
distributed seismicity by means of a grid (i.e. the result of the
smoothing procedure)
as explained in the OQ book (perhaps not clearly) at page 32.

Kind regards,
Marco

I have new instalation for openquake on ubuntu 11.10 the installation
went well but when running an example I get

elgabry@:/usr/openquake$ openquake --config_file
demos/simple_fault_demo_hazard/config.gem --output_type=xml

Ignoring GMF_RANDOM_SEED in classical, it's meaningful only in
scenario, event_based
