Abstract
This report presents the development and results of a new fault displacement model. The work was completed as part of the Fault Displacement Hazard Initiative (FDHI) Project, which is a multi-year and community-based research project coordinated by the University of California. The new model predicts the total discrete net displacement across simple and complex fault surface ruptures as a function of magnitude, style of faulting, and position along the rupture length.
