The 2010 Chile Earthquake: a five-year reflection

, 2015
At 3:34AM local time, on February 27th, 2010, a moment magnitude Mw 8.8 megathrust earthquake struck offshore the coast of Chile. The earthquake ruptured a 540 by 200 km mature seismic gap of the underlying subduction pacific plate interlocking mechanism.

Dynamic cracking properties and generating conditions of coal under rapid gas release

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Gas release tests revealed that crack initiation and propagation are jointly controlled by initial crack length, residual strength, and gas release velocity. A new outburst risk coefficient was thus developed from a fracture mechanics perspective, offering a novel predictive approach.

Thermal‐induced fracture evolution and acoustic signature of Beishan granite: Insights into tensile strength of barrier system for high‐level radioactive waste disposal

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The tensile strength of granite, a proposed host for nuclear waste, degrades severely above 400°C. We link this to specific microcracking patterns captured by acoustic emission, establishing a scientific basis for assessing repository safety under thermal load.
