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

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 ...

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
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 ...

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.

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]
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 ...

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.
