Quantifying the Influence of Fault Geometry via Mesh Morphing With Applications to Earthquake Dynamic Rupture and Thermal Models of Subduction

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Subsurface geometries, such as faults and subducting slab interfaces, are often poorly constrained, yet they exert first‐order control on key geophysical processes, including subduction zone thermal structure and earthquake rupture dynamics.

Material relation to assess the crashworthiness of ship structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A ship collision accident can result in severe environmental damage and loss of life. Therefore the non-linear finite element method with shell elements is used to assess the crashworthiness of ship steel structures through collision simulations. However,
