Co-seismic surface dilatation and shear strain fields derived from SPOT-5 displacements
Repeated earthquake cycles produce topography, fault damage zones, and other geologic structures along faults. These geomorphic and structural features indicate the presence of co-seismic permanent (inelastic) surface deformation, yet a long-standing ...

Co‐ and Post‐Seismic Mechanisms of the 2020 Mw 6.3 Yutian Earthquake and Local Stress Evolution
The Mw 6.3 Yutian earthquake, occurred in northwestern Tibet on 25 June 2020, is one of the major events sequentially occurring in the region following the 2008 Mw 7.2, 2012 Mw 6.2, and 2014 Mw 6.9 earthquakes, and is of great significance for studying ...

Vulnerability of pipelines subjected to permanent deformation due to geotechnical co-seismic effects
Pipelines are basilar structures for the development of civil and industrial activities. Their seismic behaviour could be analyzed by applying a multi-disciplinary approach. In particular, for underground pipelines, soil/structure interaction is considered determinant during the seismic event.

Measuring and Modeling Viscoelastic Relaxation of the Lithosphere with Application to the Northern Volcanic Zone, Iceland [PDF]
Viscoelastic relaxation of the stress perturbation caused by an earthquake or diking event can produce measurable ground deformation over 100 km away from the source. We consider the role of viscoelastic relaxation in two different contexts.

Pseudotachylyte-Mylonites Record of Transient Creep From Inter-Seismic Ductile to Co-Seismic Rupture
Transient creep during an earthquake cycle is very important to understand the rheology of fault and deformation mechanisms in the brittle–plastic transition zone.

Regional Seismic Wavefield Propagation [PDF]
Through the examination of local and regional seismic waveform data the crust and upper mantle of southern California are investigated. Using local and regional seismic phases such as Pn, Sn, PL, and surface waves, seismic wave velocities of interesting

The structure and composition of exhumed faults, and their implications for seismic processes [PDF]
Field studies of faults exhumed from seismogenic depths provide useful data to constrain seismologic models of fault zone processes and properties. Data collected on the San Andreas Fault in the San Gabriel Mountains has shown that large-displacement ...
