Intensity measure types¶
Module openquake.hazardlib.imt defines different intensity measure
types.
- 
class openquake.hazardlib.imt.PGA[source]¶
- Peak ground acceleration during an earthquake measured in units of - g, times of gravitational acceleration.
- 
class openquake.hazardlib.imt.PGV[source]¶
- Peak ground velocity during an earthquake measured in units of - cm/sec.
- 
class openquake.hazardlib.imt.PGD[source]¶
- Peak ground displacement during an earthquake measured in units of - cm.
- 
class openquake.hazardlib.imt.SA[source]¶
- Spectral acceleration, defined as the maximum acceleration of a damped, single-degree-of-freedom harmonic oscillator. Units are - g, times of gravitational acceleration.- Parameters: - period – The natural period of the oscillator in seconds.
- damping – The degree of damping for the oscillator in percents.
 - Raises: - ValueError – if period or damping is not positive. - 
damping¶
- itemgetter(item, ...) –> itemgetter object - Return a callable object that fetches the given item(s) from its operand. After f = itemgetter(2), the call f(r) returns r[2]. After g = itemgetter(2, 5, 3), the call g(r) returns (r[2], r[5], r[3]) 
 - 
period¶
- itemgetter(item, ...) –> itemgetter object - Return a callable object that fetches the given item(s) from its operand. After f = itemgetter(2), the call f(r) returns r[2]. After g = itemgetter(2, 5, 3), the call g(r) returns (r[2], r[5], r[3]) 
 
- 
class openquake.hazardlib.imt.IA[source]¶
- Arias intensity. Determines the intensity of shaking by measuring the acceleration of transient seismic waves. Units are - m/s.
- 
class openquake.hazardlib.imt.CAV[source]¶
- Cumulative Absolute Velocity. Defins the integral of the absolute acceleration time series. Units are “g-sec” 
- 
class openquake.hazardlib.imt.RSD[source]¶
- Relative significant duration, 5-95% of - Arias intensity, in seconds.
