1 Multiphysics and multiscale earthqauke modeling C. Meng B. Hager ERL, MIT May 29, 2017

2 Multiphysics Poro(visco-)elasticity, (quasi-)static and dynamic processes. ground overburden reservoir producer reservoir underburden Static equation apple KU = F, apple Ke H where K = H T, F = tk c + S p Dynamic equation Mü + C u + K e u = f. f Q tk c p.

3 Multi(temporal-)scale Implicitly solving the (quasi-)static equation, although expensive, one can take long time step hours, days... U = K 1 F Explicitly solving the dynamic equation, although cheap, one has to take short time step (CFL condition). u n = M 1 t 2 (f n Ku n 1 ) tc (u n 1 u n 2 ) +2u n 1 u n 2

4 Multi(spatial-)scale ground or ocean bottom FD FE absorbing PML High order explicit FE methods (SEM, DG) suffer strict CFL condition, and do not solve (quasi-)static equations. Linear FE can solve both the static and dynamic equations, but suffers strict CFL condition, i.e. expensive for field scale ground motions.

6 Pore pressure stabilization Smith and Griffiths (1982) provide the FE formulation for poroelasticity. Bochev and Dohrmann (2006) provide a pore pressure stabilization method. For Maxwell power law viscoelasticity, the deformation has affect on both the stiffness matrix K and the RHS function F, Melosh and Raefsky (1980).

Constraint I can be solved for dynamic rupture. Bartolomeo et al. (2010) provide an explicit routine to model the fault constraint in 2D. Defmod (Meng 2016) has made the method for 3D and general constitutive laws.

12 Summary This work has resulted a multipysics and multiscale earthquake simulation tool, defmod-swpc. Temporally, it covers both the (quasi-)static and dynamic processes. Spatially, it covers both the near source/fault motions and far field ground motions.
