A Feasibility Study of an FEM Simulation Used in Co-Seismic Deformations: A Case Study of a Dip-Slip Fault

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2013
For this study, we conducted a numerical simulation on co-seismic displacement for a dip-slip fault in a half-space medium based upon a finite element method (FEM).

On the contribution of the horizontal sea-bed displacements into the tsunami generation process [PDF]

, 2012
The main reason for the generation of tsunamis is the deformation of the bottom of the ocean caused by an underwater earthquake. Usually, only the vertical bottom motion is taken into account while the horizontal co-seismic displacements are neglected in

Seismological and Ground Deformation Study of the Ionian Islands (W. Greece) during 2014–2018, a Period of Intense Seismic Activity

Applied Sciences, 2022
Seismicity in the Ionian Sea (W. Greece) is mainly generated along the Cephalonia–Lefkada Transform Fault Zone (CLTFZ) in the central Ionian, and on the northwestern termination of the Hellenic subduction margin in the south.

Quaternary rupture of a crustal fault beneath Victoria, British Columbia, Canada [PDF]

, 2017
The seismic potential of crustal faults within the forearc of the northern Cascadia subduction zone in British Columbia has remained elusive, despite the recognition of recent seismic activity on nearby fault systems within the Juan de Fuca Strait.

Vulnerability of pipelines subjected to permanent deformation due to geotechnical co-seismic effects

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2013
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.

Post-seismic relaxation process and vertical deformation following the 2008 Ms8.0 Wenchuan earthquake, China

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2012
The post-seismic horizontal and vertical deformations following the 2008 Ms8.0 Wenchuan earthquake are inferred from GPS and precise leveling data. The post-seismic relaxation process is measured using CPS data from campaign stations located around the ...

Seismic Cycle in Bituminous Dolostones (Monte Camicia Thrust Zone, Central Apennines, Italy)

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
Seismic ruptures often propagate along fault zones cutting km‐thick sequences of carbonates (e.g., Wenchuan Mw 7.8, 2008, China; L’Aquila Mw 6.1, 2009, Italy).

Rupture by damage accumulation in rocks [PDF]

, 2006
The deformation of rocks is associated with microcracks nucleation and propagation, i.e. damage. The accumulation of damage and its spatial localization lead to the creation of a macroscale discontinuity, so-called "fault" in geological terms, and to the
