Landers 1992 "reloaded": Integrative dynamic earthquake rupture modeling [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2018 AbstractThe 1992 Mw 7.3 Landers earthquake is perhaps one of the best studied seismic events. However, many aspects of the dynamics of the rupture process are still puzzling, for example, the rupture transfer between fault segments. We present 3‐D spontaneous dynamic rupture simulations, incorporating the interplay of fault geometry, topography, 3‐D ...

Seismic characteristics of supershear and sub‐Rayleigh earthquakes: Implication from simple cases
Geophysical Research Letters, 2017 Numerous investigations of supershear earthquakes make a conclusion that a supershear earthquake produces a seismic shock wave on the ground that may increase the resulting destruction. We investigate a supershear rupture promoted by the free surface and

Rupture dynamics of flat colloidal films
Physical Review Fluids, 2023 Here, we report experimental results on the rupture of flat colloidal films over a large range of volume fractions, 0.00 $\le ϕ\le$ 0.47. The films are formed using a constant fluid volume, ruptured with a needle, and recorded using a high-speed camera.

A physical model for widespread near‐surface and fault zone damage induced by earthquakes
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2008 I present a rigorous unifying interpretation of the well‐documented widespread near‐surface and fault zone damage induced by earthquakes by simulating three‐dimensional dynamic rupture propagation on a vertical strike‐slip fault.

Rupture Dynamics of Heterogeneous Frictional Interfaces [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2018 AbstractThe onset of sliding motion is conditional on the propagation of rupture fronts that detach the contacting asperities forming a frictional interface. These ruptures, when propagating over a fault surface, are the most common mechanism for an earthquake.

Laboratory earthquakes decipher control and stability of rupture speeds
Nature Communications, 2023 Earthquakes are destructive natural hazards with damage capacity dictated by rupture speeds. Traditional dynamic rupture models predict that earthquake ruptures gradually accelerate to the Rayleigh wave speed with some of them further jumping to stable ...

Extracellular Matrix Dynamics and Fetal Membrane Rupture [PDF]
Reproductive Sciences, 2013 The extracellular matrix (ECM) plays an important role in determining cell and organ function: (1) it is an organizing substrate that provides tissue tensile strength; (2) it anchors cells and influences cell morphology and function via interaction with cell surface receptors; and (3) it is a reservoir for growth factors. Alterations in the content and
