Electro-Magnetic Earthquake Bursts and Critical Rupture of Peroxy Bond Networks in Rocks
, 2006 We propose a mechanism for the low frequency electromagnetic emissions and other electromagnetic phenomena which have been associated with earthquakes. The mechanism combines the critical earthquake concept and the concept of crust acting as a charging ...

Carbon Dots: An Emerging Frontier for Green and Sustainable Civil Engineering Materials
ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.Traditional civil engineering materials (CE materials) are usually involved with high‐energy consumption during manufacturing, significant maintenance costs, and substantial environmental impacts throughout their life cycles. The progress of nanotechnology is catalyzing a green and sustainable transformation within the field.

Molecular Insights Into the Water Freezing on Kaolinite Surfaces: The Key Role of Surface Properties
International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Unfrozen water content is a key factor governing the physical properties of frozen soils, and variations in mineral surface properties play a critical role in determining this content. However, the fundamental physical mechanisms of how different mineral surfaces affect soil water freezing remain poorly understood.

Scientific Exploration of Induced SeisMicity and Stress (SEISMS) [PDF]
Scientific Drilling, 2017 Several major fault-drilling projects have captured the interseismic and postseismic periods of earthquakes. However, near-field observations of faults immediately before and during an earthquake remain elusive due to the unpredictable nature of ...

On the evolution of elastic properties during laboratory stick-slip experiments spanning the transition from slow slip to dynamic rupture [PDF]
, 2016 The physical mechanisms governing slow earthquakes remain unknown, as does the relationship between slow and regular earthquakes. To investigate the mechanism(s) of slow earthquakes and related quasi-dynamic modes of fault slip we performed laboratory ...

Terra Nova, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this study, we examine the relationship between Brune stress drop and fault slip where the stress drop is estimated using the Empirical Green's Function (EGF) method and slip distribution is derived from seismic and geodetic data inversion.

Permeability-controlled migration of induced seismicity to deeper depths near Venus in North Texas
Scientific Reports, 2022 Migration of seismic events to deeper depths along basement faults over time has been observed in the wastewater injection sites, which can be correlated spatially and temporally to the propagation or retardation of pressure fronts and corresponding ...

Fault reactivation by fluid injection: Controls from stress state and injection rate [PDF]
, 2018 We studied the influence of stress state and fluid injection rate on the reactivation of faults. We conducted experiments on a saw-cut Westerly granite sample under triaxial stress conditions.
