Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Seismology
  • Statistics
  • Geometry

Robert W. Graves spends much of his time researching Seismology, Ground motion, Structural basin, Seismogram and Strong ground motion. His Seismology study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Amplitude. His Ground motion research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Inverse, Broadband and Square root.

Robert W. Graves has researched Structural basin in several fields, including Bedrock, Sediment and Reference model. The Seismogram study combines topics in areas such as Fault, Numerical analysis, Finite difference method and Earthquake scenario. He works mostly in the field of Strong ground motion, limiting it down to concerns involving Geodesy and, occasionally, Spectral acceleration.

His most cited work include:

  • Simulating seismic wave propagation in 3D elastic media using staggered-grid finite differences (918 citations)
  • Modification of Empirical Strong Ground Motion Attenuation Relations to Include the Amplitude and Duration Effects of Rupture Directivity (911 citations)
  • Characterizing Crustal Earthquake Slip Models for the Prediction of Strong Ground Motion (665 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Seismology, Ground motion, Structural basin, Geodesy and Seismic hazard. His work in the fields of Fault, Hypocenter and Strong ground motion overlaps with other areas such as Waveform. His work carried out in the field of Hypocenter brings together such families of science as Spectral acceleration, Earthquake rupture and Magnitude.

His study in Ground motion is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Synthetic seismogram, San andreas fault, Broadband and Scaling. In his study, Wave propagation is strongly linked to Surface wave, which falls under the umbrella field of Structural basin. Robert W. Graves works in the field of Geodesy, focusing on Geodetic datum in particular.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Seismology (70.59%)
  • Ground motion (35.95%)
  • Structural basin (16.99%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Seismology (70.59%)
  • Ground motion (35.95%)
  • Broadband (11.11%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Seismology, Ground motion, Broadband, Geodesy and Magnitude. He combines subjects such as Structural basin, Attenuation and Near and far field with his study of Seismology. His Structural basin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Fault and Duration.

His Ground motion study combines topics in areas such as Verification and validation of computer simulation models, Induced seismicity and Graben. His Broadband research incorporates elements of Calibration, Remote sensing and Seismic analysis. His studies deal with areas such as Characterization and Strike-slip tectonics as well as Strong ground motion.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The 2015 Gorkha (Nepal) earthquake sequence: I. Source modeling and deterministic 3D ground shaking (15 citations)
  • Near-Field Ground Motions from the July 2019 Ridgecrest, California, Earthquake Sequence (10 citations)
  • Broadband Ground-Motion Simulation of the 2011 Mw 6.2 Christchurch, New Zealand, Earthquake (10 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Statistics
  • Geometry
  • Seismology

Seismology, Ground motion, Near and far field, Broadband and Seismic hazard are his primary areas of study. As part of his studies on Seismology, he often connects relevant areas like Sequence. His Sequence research incorporates themes from Vibration, Aftershock, Ground shaking, Joint and Inversion.

His Ground motion research includes themes of Earthquake rupture, Scaling and Geodesy. Robert W. Graves has included themes like Mercalli intensity scale, Alluvium and Foreshock in his Near and far field study. The various areas that Robert W. Graves examines in his Broadband study include Verification and validation of computer simulation models and Task.
