Earthquake Rupture Forecast Sample Clauses

Earthquake Rupture Forecast. (ERF) logic tree In case of a simple input model, i.e. a model that do not account for epistemic uncertainties, the information describing seismic sources is grouped into an array of GEMSourceData objects. The size of this array will correspond exactly to the number of sources included in the model. In case of complex models, i.e. models that account for epistemic uncertainties related to the creation of an ERF, an object that is capable to fully describe the structure of the logic tree exists. Note that in the current version of the engine, we do not support logic trees with uncorrelated branching levels. For calculation purposes, the defined logic tree data structure simply stores one GEMSourceData-object for each end branch of the logic tree. With uncorrelated uncertainties we mean uncertainties that do not apply in the same way to all sources. For example, if a given fault system is subject to uncertainties in the dip angle, so that 3 possible values of dip are allowed (say 40, 50, 60), correlated uncertainties means that ALL faults in the system may have 40, or 50, or 60 degree dip, uncorrelated uncertainties means that in the system SOME faults have 40, some 50, some 60 degree dip. Clearly if the fault system is large (many faults) enumerating all the possible combinations is not possible, so a Monte Carlo approach is probably the only feasible way to compute a number of realizations of fault systems from which a mean hazard map can be computed Figure 3-1 shows an example how the SHE stores logic trees. It is evident that the central element used to describe the structure of a logic tree is an object called GEMLogicTreeBranchingLevel. Each branching level contains one or more branches and each single one is characterized by a parameter value and a weight. In the example of Figure 3-1 we put two branching levels, one accounting for epistemic uncertainties related to fault geometries the other used to specify two possible depths of the top of rupture. Within our logic tree model, branching levels can be combined to create any desired tree structure (for an example, see the lower part of Figure 3-1).

Following execution of the Contract and prior to commencement of construction, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a fully executed copy of the Contract for Landlord’s records. Prior to the commencement of the construction of the Tenant Improvements, and after Tenant has accepted all bids and proposals for the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a detailed breakdown, by trade, for all of Tenant’s Agents, of the final estimated costs to be incurred or which have been incurred in connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements to be performed by or at the direction of Tenant or the Contractor (the “Construction Budget”), which costs shall include, but not be limited to, the costs of the Architect’s and Engineers’ fees and the Landlord Coordination Fee. The amount, if any, by which the total costs set forth in the Construction Budget exceed the amount of the Tenant Improvement Allowance is referred to herein as the “Over Allowance Amount”. In the event that an Over-Allowance Amount exists, then prior to the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall supply Landlord with cash in an amount equal to the Over-Allowance Amount. The Over-Allowance Amount shall be disbursed by Landlord prior to the disbursement of any of the then remaining portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, and such disbursement shall be pursuant to the same procedure as the Tenant Improvement Allowance. In the event that, after the total costs set forth in the Construction Budget have been delivered by Tenant to Landlord, the costs relating to the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements shall change, any additional costs for such design and construction in excess of the total costs set forth in the Construction Budget shall be added to the Over-Allowance Amount and the total costs set forth in the Construction Budget, and such additional costs shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord immediately as an addition to the Over-Allowance Amount or at Landlord’s option, Tenant shall make payments for such additional costs out of its own funds, but Tenant shall continue to provide Landlord with the documents described in items (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of Section 2.2.2.1 of this Tenant Work Letter, above, for Landlord’s approval, prior to Tenant paying such costs. All Tenant Improvements paid for by the Over-Allowance Amount shall be deemed Landlord’s property under the terms of the Lease.

  • Emergency Escalation Escalation is strictly for purposes of notifying and investigating possible or potential issues in relation to monitored services. The initiation of any escalation and the subsequent cooperative investigations do not in themselves imply that a monitored service has failed its performance requirements.
