Complete Coulomb Failure Stress Changes and Stress Triggering of Yunnan Longling Earthquake Sequence

open access: yesChinese Journal of Geophysics, 2007
The complete Coulomb failure stress changes caused by the 1976 Ms73, Ms74 Yunnan Longling double main earthquakes are calculated. And dynamic and static stress triggering effects on the after earthquake sequence are studied. The results show that the second main earthquake is subjected to the triggering effect of dynamic and static Coulomb ...

Comparing the generalized Hoek-Brown and Mohr-Coulomb failure criteria for stress analysis on the rocks failure plane

Geomechanics and Engineering, 2015
Determination of mobilized shear strength parameters (that identify stresses on the failure plane) is required for analyzing the stability by limit equilibrium method. Generalized Hoek-Brown (GHB) and Mohr-Coulomb (MC) failure criteria are usually used for obtaining stresses on the plane of failure.

Mohr-Coulomb Failure Criterion Expressed in Terms of Stress Invariants

Journal of Applied Mechanics, Transactions ASME, 1998
A polynomial expression for the Mohr-Coulomb criterion for failure of brittle or frictional materials in terms of stress invariants is derived. The form of the polynomial expression corresponds to the pyramidal shape of the failure surface in principal stress space. The pressure-sensitive character of the failure of a Mohr-Coulomb material is indicated

Sensitivity of Coulomb stress change to the parameters of the Coulomb failure model: A case study using the 2008 Mw 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2014
AbstractThe Coulomb stress change has been widely employed to interpret mainshock‐mainshock and mainshock‐aftershock triggering as well as interactions amongst earthquake faults and volcanoes. This quantitative index is computed based on the Coulomb failure criterion and is a function of fault parameters including the source and receiver fault ...

Large aftershocks triggering by Coulomb failure stress following the 2001M S=8.1 great Kunlun earthquake

Acta Seismologica Sinica, 2004
The great Kunlun earthquake occurred on Nov. 14, 2001 in Qinghai Province, China. Five large aftershocks with magnitude larger than 5.0 occurred near the Kunlun fault after main shock. Calculations of the change in Coulomb failure stress reveal that 4 of 5 large aftershocks occurred in areas with Δσf>0 (10−2–10−1 MPa) and one aftershock occurred in an ...
