To demonstrate the potential for a cost-effective and flexible computing paradigm for regional seismic simulation, the computational framework is applied to perform seismic simulation of a virtual city with 50 high-fidelity structural models and 100,000 moderate-fidelity building models.
The original plan called for a cluster of moderate-sized buildings in the area of South Street Seaport, but Tobin transformed it beyond recognition.
Managers of moderate-income buildings in the city are also concerned, said Jack Freund, executive vice president of the Rent Stabilization Association, which represents 25,000 property owners and managers who collectively house more than one million apartment units.
