Circular Area Source Model

Class Name

• RCircularAreaSourceModel

Location in Objects Pane

• Models > Model > Hazard > Earthquake > Location > Circular Area Source

• Yes

Properties

Object Name

• Name of the object in Rt
• Allowable characters are upper-case and lower-case letters, numbers, and underscore (“_”).
• The name is unique and case-sensitive.

Display Output

• Determines whether the model is allowed to print messages to the Output Pane.

Centre Location

• Location object for the centre of the source

• $${R _ {\min}}$$ = Minimum radius of the source (given as a real number)

• $${R _ {\max}}$$ = Maximum radius of the source (given as a real number)

Theta 1

• $${\vartheta_1}$$ = Value between 0 and 1 that defines the location alongside the radius, typically a random variable uniformly distributed between 0 and 1

Theta 2

• $${\vartheta_2}$$ = Value between 0 and 1, typically a random variable uniformly distributed between 0 and 1

Depth

• Depth of the output location, in km

Output

• Location object carried by a location response object.
• The output is an automatically generated generic response object, which takes the object name of the model plus “Response”.

Remove

• Removes the object.

Display On Map

• Display the object on map.

Remove From Map

• Removes the object from map.
