Estimation of the Wenchuan Earthquake Rupture Sequence Utilizing Teleseismic Records and Coseismic Displacements

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2018
For the 12 May 2008 Mw 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake, two imbricate faults, Beichuan fault and Pengguan fault, have ruptured simultaneously. Special attention should be paid to the point of 40 km northeast of the epicenter, in which the Xiaoyudong fault ...

Coseismic river avulsion on surface rupturing faults: Assessing earthquake-induced flood hazard

open access: yesScience Advances, 2023
Surface-rupturing earthquakes can produce fault displacements that abruptly alter the established course of rivers. Several notable examples of fault rupture–induced river avulsions (FIRAs) have been documented, yet the factors influencing these phenomena have not been examined in detail.

Surface ruptures and building damage of the 2003 Bam, Iran earthquake mapped by satellite synthetic apeerture radar interferometric correlation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We use the interferometric correlation from Envisat synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images to map the details of the surface ruptures related to the 26 December 2003 earthquake that devastated Bam, Iran.

Research on the Surface Deformation, Fault Rupture, and Coseismic Geohazard of the 2022 Luding Mw 6.8 Earthquake

open access: yesSensors, 2023
An Mw 6.8 earthquake occurred in Luding County, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, on 5 September 2022. This seismic event triggered numerous coseismic geohazards in the seismic zone. In this study, the ascending- and descending-track synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images observed by the Sentinel-1A satellite are utilized to extract

7.7, Baluchistan Rupture (Pakistan)

open access: yes, 2022
International audienceWe show the role of off-fault deformation in accommodating surface displacements across two kilometer-scale fault geometrical complexities.-Total coseismic surface displacement is constant along the study area, despite strong ...

Coseismic surface deformation from air photos: The Kickapoo step over in the 1992 Landers rupture [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2006
Coseismic deformation of the ground can be measured from aerial views taken before and after an earthquake. We chose the area of the Kickapoo‐Landers step over along the 1992 Landers earthquake zone, using air photos (scale 1:40,000) scanned at 0.4 m resolution.

Slip distributions on active normal faults measured from LiDAR and field mapping of geomorphic offsets: an example from L'Aquila, Italy, and implications for modelling seismic moment release [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Surface slip distributions for an active normal fault in central Italy have been measured using terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), in order to assess the impact of changes in fault orientation and kinematics when modelling subsurface slip distributions ...

Parameters of Coseismic Reverse‐ and Oblique‐Slip Surface Ruptures of the 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake, Eastern Tibetan Plateau [PDF]

open access: yesActa Geologica Sinica - English Edition, 2009
Abstract:On May 12th, 2008, the Mw7.9 Wenchuan earthquake ruptured the Beichuan, Pengguan and Xiaoyudong faults simultaneously along the middle segment of the Longmenshan thrust belt at the eastern margin of the Tibetan plateau. Field investigations constrain the surface rupture pattern, length and offsets related to the Wenchuan earthquake.
