Applied Sciences, 2017 The 2016 Ecuador M 7.8 earthquake ruptured the subduction zone boundary between the Nazca plate and the South America plate. This M 7.8 earthquake may have promoted failure in the surrounding crust, where six M ≥ 6 aftershocks occurred following this ...

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021 Slow slip events (SSEs) at subduction zones can precede large‐magnitude earthquakes and may serve as precursor indicators, but the triggering of earthquakes by slow slip remains insufficiently understood.

Failure in Confined Brazilian Tests on Sandstone
Applied Sciences, 2021 Strength of rocks in the confined tension region, where the minimum principal stress is tensile, has only infrequently been measured and is not well understood. Quasi-static confined Brazilian tests under a range of confining stresses (2.76 to 27.58 MPa)

The Mohr–Coulomb criterion for intact rock strength and friction – a re-evaluation and consideration of failure under polyaxial stresses [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2016 Darley Dale and Pennant sandstones were tested under conditions of both axisymmetric shortening and extension normal to bedding. These are the two extremes of loading under polyaxial stress conditions.

Stress triggering of the Lushan M7. 0 earthquake by the Wenchuan Ms8. 0 earthquake
Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2013 The Wenchuan Ms8. 0 earthquake and the Lushan M7. 0 earthquake occurred in the north and south segments of the Longmenshan nappe tectonic belt, respectively. Based on the focal mechanism and finite fault model of the Wenchuan Ms8.

Importance of forearc topography for the triggering of aftershocks of megathrust earthquakes: insights from mechanical models and the Tohoku-Oki and Maule earthquakes [PDF]
Solid EarthAftershocks of megathrust earthquakes at subduction zones may be driven by stresses arising from the topography of the forearc. However, the effect of topographic stresses on aftershock triggering is quantitatively not well understood and has been ...

COMPARING THE HOEK-BROWN AND MOHR-COULOMB FAILURE CRITERIA IN FEM ANALYSIS
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2021 This paper revisits the issue of a potential substitutions of the Hoek-Brown failure model by the standard Mohr-Coulomb model in the stability analysis of rock masses. The derivation of equivalent shear strength parameters of the Mohr-Coulomb proposed by

Study on Coulomb Stress Triggering of the April 2015 M7.8 Nepal Earthquake Sequence
International Journal of Geophysics, 2016 In April 2015, a M7.8 earthquake occurred less than one month before a M7.3 earthquake near Kodari, Nepal. The Nepal earthquake sequences also include four larger (M > 6) aftershocks. To reveal the interrelation between the main shock and the aftershocks,
