A Stochastic Method for Simulating Near‐Field Seismograms: Application to the 2016 Tottori Earthquake

Abstract A stochastic finite‐fault approach based on corner frequency (EXSIM) is applied to simulate the Tottori Mw 6.2 earthquake. The parameter κ0 is calculated based on ground motion recordings. Other parameters, such as quality factor (127f0.61) and stress drop (27.97 bars) are taken from our ea...
