Finite Element Model of Branched Ruptures Including Off-Fault Plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Fault intersections are a geometric complexity that frequently occurs in nature. Here we focus on earthquake rupture behavior when a continuous, planar main fault has a second fault branching off of it.

To Heal or Not to Heal?: 2. The Moment–Recurrence Time Behavior of Repeating Earthquakes in the 2011 Prague, Oklahoma Aftershock Sequence Is Consistent With Laboratory Healing Rates

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract The timing and failure conditions of an earthquake are governed by the interplay between fault reloading and restrengthening. The moment‐recurrence time behavior of repeating earthquakes can give observational estimates of fault healing rates; however, it is difficult to link these observed healing rates to laboratory studies of frictional ...

Resolving Coseismic and Aseismic Normal Fault Slip Behaviors From InSAR Time Series of the European Ground Motion Service (EGMS)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Normal fault slip is regularly quantified for instantaneous seismic events and across geological timescales in rate‐and‐state friction frameworks. However, recent studies have shown that normal faults may undergo transient aseismic slip exceeding time‐averaged rates, outside of steady state conditions.

State of Stress Across Major Faults in the Nankai Subduction Zone Estimated From Wellbore Breakouts

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Quantifying the orientation and magnitude of stress at tectonically active margins and along major fault systems is integral to understanding the mechanics of faulting and earthquakes. Here we use data collected as part of the IODP (Integrated Ocean Drilling Program) Nankai Trough Seismogenic Zone Experiment to constrain in situ stress ...

The Effect of Edifice Slope, Failure Surface Geometry, and Magma Intrusion Depth on the Development of Flank Instability at Volcanoes

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Magmatism is a known driver of flank instability at volcanoes where flank slip has been observed. Studies of instability at Kı̄lauea, Piton de la Fournaise, and Etna imply that long‐term flank motion likely requires the presence of a layer accommodating the sliding, and a force, such as magma intrusion, that promotes slip.

Spontaneous Initiation and Evolution of Polygonal Fault Systems During the Early Burial of Sediments in 3D Numerical Models

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Polygonal Fault Systems (PFS) or networks were generated in 3D finite‐difference models within the upper (active) layer of two‐layer model. The driving force of this process results from a progressive diagenetically induced volumetric contraction (porosity reduction) of the active layer during its burial.

High-performance thermoplastic composites poly(ether ketone ketone)/silver nanowires: Morphological, mechanical and electrical properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
High-performance conductive thermoplastic composites poly(ether ketone ketone) (PEKK)/silver nanowires were elaborated by melt blending. Silver nanowires (AgNWs) with high aspect ratio (ξ~220) were elaborated through the polyol process in presence of ...

The 5 April 2024 Mw ${\mathrm{M}}_{\mathrm{w}}$4.8 Tewksbury, New Jersey Aftershock Sequence Resolved With Machine‐Learning‐Enhanced Detection Methods

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 12, 28 June 2025.
Abstract The Ramapo Seismic Zone (RSZ) in the Northeastern United States hosts frequent but poorly understood intraplate earthquakes, potentially posing a significant hazard to the nearby New York metropolitan area. The 5 April 2024, Mw ${M}_{w}$4.8, Tewksbury, New Jersey earthquake, provides a rare opportunity to study the RSZ seismicity.
