Source types of induced earthquakes in underground mines: Revealed by regional moment tensor inversion

open access: yesGeomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources
Mining-induced earthquakes have been very frequent in recent years due to increasing mechanized mining. Compared with natural earthquakes, even a small one may cause significant damage to the mine area and its surroundings.

Ensemble‐based soil liquefaction assessment: Leveraging CPT data for enhanced predictions

open access: yesCivil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 23-35, March 2025.
Abstract This study focuses on predicting soil liquefaction, a critical phenomenon that can significantly impact the stability and safety of structures during seismic events. Accurate liquefaction assessment is vital for geotechnical engineering, as it informs the design and mitigation strategies needed to safeguard infrastructure and reduce the risk ...

Hyperledger Fabric for the (digitalized) lifecycle of construction products: Applied review on fastening technology

open access: yesCivil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 9-22, March 2025.
Abstract Blockchain technology is a digital decentralized data ledger recording transactions in an encrypted format. Its implementation can potentially hold significant advantages for the built environment, particularly in manufacturing and building product usage aligned with Building Information Modeling (BIM). This paradigm shift toward decentralized

Importance of small earthquakes for stress transfers and earthquake triggering

open access: yes, 2004
We estimate the relative importance of small and large earthquakes for static stress changes and for earthquake triggering, assuming that earthquakes are triggered by static stress changes and that earthquakes are located on a fractal network of ...

Itinerant curriculum theory: People's theory against the field's epistemicidal ethos

open access: yesThe Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The field of curriculum studies suffers from a glaring theoretical impasse. Much of this impasse has been rightly attributed to the triumphalism of the neoliberal wave that has massacred the educational hemisphere with policies and practices that reduce pedagogy to an instrumentalist praxis directly associated with the thirsty desires and ...

Earthen construction: structural vulnerabilities and retrofit solutions for seismic actions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Earthen structures present very appealing characteristics regarding a more sustainable practice with the preservation of our natural resources. However, when subjected to earthquake ground motions, this type of construction may present a deficient ...

A Suite of Exercises for Verifying Dynamic Earthquake Rupture Codes

open access: yes, 2018
We describe a set of benchmark exercises that are designed to test if computer codes that simulate dynamic earthquake rupture are working as intended. These types of computer codes are often used to understand how earthquakes operate, and they produce ...
