A Novel Method for Constructing Main-Aftershock Sequences and Its Application in the Global Damage Accumulation Effects Analysis of Gravity Dams

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2021
The traditional linear elastic and Drucker–Prager (DP) models cannot truly reflect the strong nonlinear characteristics of the concrete and rock foundation of the dam under earthquake.

Rupture Process of Subduction-Zone Earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
This review is primarily concerned with the rupture process of large subduction-zone earthquakes determined by various seismological methods, and with its interpretation in terms of an asperity model.

Constraints on fault and lithosphere rheology from the coseismic slip and postseismic afterslip of the 2006 M_w 7.0 Mozambique earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The 2006 M_w 7.0 Mozambique (Machaze) normal-faulting earthquake ruptured an unusually steeply dipping fault plane (~75°). The amount of slip in the earthquake decreased from depths of ~10 km toward the surface, and this shallow slip deficit was at least

Temporal characteristics of some aftershock sequences in Bulgaria

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1999
We apply statistical analysis to study the temporal distribution of aftershocks in aftershock sequences of five earthquakes which occurred in Bulgaria.

Evaluation of Reliquefaction Behavior of Coastal Embankment Due to Successive Earthquakes Based on Shaking Table Tests

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Liquefaction caused by long-term cyclic loads in loose saturated soil can lead to ground subsidence and superstructure failures. To address this issue, this study aimed to emulate the liquefaction phenomenon based on a shaking table test while especially

Power Law Distributions of Offspring and Generation Numbers in Branching Models of Earthquake Triggering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We consider a general stochastic branching process, which is relevant to earthquakes as well as to many other systems, and we study the distributions of the total number of offsprings (direct and indirect aftershocks in seismicity) and of the total ...

Mainshocks are aftershocks of conditional foreshocks: How do foreshock statistical properties emerge from aftershock laws [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The inverse Omori law for foreshocks discovered in the 1970s states that the rate of earthquakes prior to a mainshock increases on average as a power law ~ 1/(t_c-t)^p' of the time to the mainshock occurring at t_c.

Evaluation of the Residual Seismic Capacity of Post-Earthquake Damaged RC Columns Based on the Damage Distribution Model

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
Evaluation of the residual seismic capacity (RSC) of post-earthquake damaged buildings is instrumental to the formation of reasonable recovery strategies.

Evaluation of aftershock hazard of the 2018 M 6.2 Hualien earthquake

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2019
This paper presents a near real-time evaluation of earthquake hazard after the shallow ML 6.2 Hualien shock of depth 10.6 km occurred 2350 LT, 6 February 2018 at epicenter (24.10°N, 121.73°E). Since a large aftershock intends to bring up a new aftershock

Seismic Attenuation Tomography From 2018 Lombok Earthquakes, Indonesia

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Local earthquake data was used to determine a three-dimensional (3D) seismic attenuation structure around the aftershock source region of the 2018 Lombok earthquake in Indonesia.
