In this study, a three-dimensional model of the Longtoushan Town Basin and the velocity structure of the surrounding area, and the Spectral Elements in Elastic Dynamics code, which combines the discontinuous Galerkin technique and the spectral element method (SEM) are used to simulate and study the entire seismic wave propagation process. On 3 August 2014, a magnitude Ms 6.5 earthquake struck Ludian County, Zhaotong City, Yunnan Province, causing grave losses of life and property in the Longtoushan Town Basin near the fault. 4Guangxi Key Laboratory of Geomechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, Guilin University of Technology, Guilin, China.3School of Civil and Resource Engineering, Research Institute of Urbanization and Urban Safety, University of Science and Technology Beijing, Beijing, China.
