Simulation of SRCL to DARM coupling

I simulated to coupling of SRCL displacement noise into DARM signal, for a full dual recycled interferometer with aLIGO like parameters. The longitudinal locking point is tuned by zeroing the simulated error signals, in the same way it's done in the real world.

In summary, the coupling of SRCL to DARM, in the ideal case, is a straight 1/f^2 line. However, it's easy to add an additional high frequency component, rising as f^2, by adding some defects:

So my guess is that at LLO the change in the TF is due to a SRCL longitudinal offset. The non stationarity of the noise at LHO can be explained both with angular motion of the ETMs and residual SRCL fluctuation.
