Hey OQ Users,

All the outputs are in g, right?  or it depends on the chosen GMPE? I'm trying to use Douglas gmpes but getting very high accelerations...

Thanks id advance.

Output accelerations in g and velocities in cm/s

hi Marco 

the output accelerations from the DouglasEtAl2024 gmpe seems to be in m/s2. are all the gmpe's supposed to be in consistent units? I can see this being a risk unless clearly stated in documentation the units. It will be good to fix this to g if all other GMPE outputs are in g.

Best
Hasib

Hi Hasib,

Could you give an approximate value range for the high intensity levels you are getting from this model? Also, perhaps some context regarding the magnitude-distance combination and site conditions you are computing for? This way we can check some things and correct the implementation if required.

Thanks,
Christopher
