Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2022 The Palu earthquake, with a magnitude of 7.5, severely devastated the region in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, but the mechanism of dynamic rupture considering in-situ conditions is not well understood.

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.

Dynamic rupture modeling in a complex fault zone with distributed and localized damage
Mechanics of materials (Print)51 Active fault zones have complex structural and geometric features that are expected to affect earthquake nucleation, rupture propagation with shear and volumetric deformation, and arrest. Earthquakes, in turn, dynamically activate co-seismic off-fault

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 ...

Analysis of supershear transition regimes in rupture experiments : the effect of nucleation conditions and friction parameters [PDF]
, 2009 We consider the effect of the rupture initiation procedure on supershear transition of Mode II ruptures on interfaces governed by linear slip-weakening friction.

Linear elastic fracture mechanics predicts the propagation distance of frictional slip [PDF]
, 2014 When a frictional interface is subject to a localized shear load, it is often (experimentally) observed that local slip events initiate at the stress concentration and propagate over parts of the interface by arresting naturally before reaching the edge.

Stochastic Properties of Static Friction [PDF]
, 2020 The onset of frictional motion is mediated by rupture-like slip fronts, which nucleate locally and propagate eventually along the entire interface causing global sliding.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2019 Taking the full complexity of subduction zones into account is important for realistic modeling and hazard assessment of subduction zone seismicity and associated tsunamis. Studying seismicity requires numerical methods that span a large range of spatial

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

Spectral-element simulations of long-term fault slip: Effect of low-rigidity layers on earthquake-cycle dynamics [PDF]
, 2011 We develop a spectral element method for the simulation of long-term histories of spontaneous seismic and aseismic slip on faults subjected to tectonic loading.
