Fractal analysis of the seismicity of the territory of Azerbaijan
The article examines the distribution of earthquakes occurred in Azerbaijan and the adjacent territories during the instrumental period (1902¾2018) by investigating the self-similarity and fractal properties of the seismicity of the region.

Why the Mw 6 parkfield earthquake expected in the 1985–1993 interval was postponed till 2004?
The earthquake prediction released by USGS in 1985 to the public stated that there was an Mw6.0 earthquake occurring in the Parkfield area by January 1993 with a 95% chance. This prediction has proved unsuccessful.

INVESTIGATION OF b-VALUE VARIATIONS IN THE AFRICAN AND PARTS OF EURASIAN PLATES [PDF]
Numerous earthquakes have occurred along the collision zones of the African and parts of Eurasian plates. Some of these earthquakes along these zones have generated tsunamis.

Abstract Here, I investigated whether the b-value in the rift-axis of the Okinawa Trough, a back-arc basin, is low. The cause of the low b-value in the rift-axis of the Okinawa Trough had previously been interpreted as increased stress by dyke intrusion. However, the previous study ignored the spatial variations in magnitude completeness in the

Failure characteristics of Beishan granite under unloading confining pressures
To better understand the effects of unloading confining pressure on failure mechanism, several trial tests on loading axial stresses and unloading confining pressures with different unloading rates are performed, and acoustic emission events are recorded

SEISMICITY ANOMALIES OF M 5.0+ EARTHQUAKES IN CHILE DURING 1964-2015 [PDF]
The study of magnitude-frequency distribution of earthquake hazards in a region remains a crucial analysis in seismology. Its significance has varied from seismicity quantification to earthquake prediction.
