    public class Atkinson_2010
    extends Object
    implements GroundMotionModel
    Implementation of the ground motion model by Atkinson (2010) for shallow and deep earthquakes in Hawaii. This model applies a Hawaii specific correction factor to BooreAtkinson_2008.

    Note:August 15, 2020 email from Gail Atkinson confirms that shallow event model is about 0.05 log units lower than what is shown in Figure 7 of the reference publication. At short periods, this model and BooreAtkinson_2008 should be the same.

    Note: Direct instantiation of GroundMotionModels is prohibited. Use Gmm.instance(Imt) to retrieve an instance for a desired Imt.

        public LogicTree<GroundMotion> calc​(GmmInput in)
        Description copied from interface: GroundMotionModel
        Computes a logic tree of scalar ground motions and standard deviations for the supplied arguments. This method is implemented by GMMs to provide the horizontal peak ground acceleration and (optionally) velocity (PGA, PGV) as well as 5% damped pseudo-spectral acceleration for periods between 0.01 s and 10 s. For most modern GMMs, ground motions are computed as the average horizontal component (RotD50) but many older GMMs use some other average horizontal measure (e.g. GMRotI50).
