Abstract
The spatio-temporal rupture complexity of Gorkha earthquake was identified by Avouac et al. (2015). Recordings of any earthquake are usually available at some scattered locations where instruments have been deployed, and the Gorkha earthquake is no exception. To obtain the actual ground shaking at any location in the Indo-Nepal region, 3D propagation of waves, from the rupture presented by Avouac et al. (2015), is carried using a spectral finite element code (SPECFEM3D). Infrastructural facilities should be designed in such a way that the peak residual ground displacements are accommodated easily for post earthquake restoration. Peak ground residual displacements in the IndoNepal region can be computed from the velocities for the Gorkha earthquake presented in this work.
