Parallel and distributed simulations and visualizations of the Olami–Feder–Christiensen earthquake model
In this work we present some numerical results and visualizations obtained from parallel and distributed simulations of the Olami–Feder–Christiensen earthquake model. This model is a two-dimensional cellular automata, continuous in space and discrete in time, constructed in order to simulate earthquake activity and it was introduced as a generalization of the one-dimensional spring block model defined by Burridge–Knopoff. For this model we determine with high accuracy its exponents of the power-law behavior of the histogram of the size of earthquakes; we study the final state for several values of the parameters of the model; and we determine the path to criticality by visualizations of the site frequency histogram
