“…In recent years, significant progress has been made in modeling synthetic ground motions. With the advance of modern computing power, studies such as Bydlon et al (), Graves and Pitarka (), Mai et al (), Taborda et al (), Imperatori and Mai (), Frankel et al (), Wirth et al (), Withers, Olsen, Day, and Shi,(), Withers, Olsen, Shi, and Day, (), Olsen et al (), Graves and Pitarka (), Andrews and Ma (), Hartzell et al (), Pitarka et al (), Pitarka et al (), and Moschetti et al () have incorporated increasingly accurate physics into simulations. Some of these improvements include explicitly accounting for complex rupture processes and the propagation of waves through realistic 3‐D crustal structure to simulate ground motions at a wider range of frequencies for a variety of end‐use cases (from assessing regional seismic hazard related to basin amplification to better understanding the role of anelasticity in nuclear monitoring).…”
