The Radiated Energy of the 2004 Sumatra-Andaman Earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We use several independent methods to estimate the radiated energy E_R of the Sumatra-Andaman earthquake (M_w=9.0 to 9.3), and investigate whether the difference in the rupture patterns between north and south is reflected in the difference in the energy

Nonlinear Radiation Damping: A New Method for Dissipating Energy in Dynamic Earthquake Rupture Simulations

open access: yesThe Seismic Record, 2023
Dynamic earthquake rupture simulations are used to understand earthquake mechanics and the ground shaking that earthquakes produce. These simulations can help diagnose past earthquake behavior and are also used to generate scenarios of possible future ...

Off-fault damage controls near-surface rupture behaviour in soft sediments [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Surface-rupturing faults represent some of the most devastating examples of earthquake-related hazards. Near surface rupture behaviour is poorly understood, due to limited information concerning the amount of off-fault energy dissipated in a volume ...

Pre-Seismic Irregularities during the 2020 Samos (Greece) Earthquake (M = 6.9) as Investigated from Multi-Parameter Approach by Ground and Space-Based Techniques

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
We present a comprehensive analysis of pre-seismic anomalies as computed from the ground and space-based techniques during the recent Samos earthquake in Greece on 30 October 2020, with a magnitude M = 6.9.

Representations of the radiated energy in earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2005
We investigate the representation of the radiated energy, E_R, in earthquakes. In seismology E_R is estimated from either far-field seismic waves or the stress and displacement on the fault plane. Although E_R comes from the entire volume of the Earth, it can be expressed as an integral over the fault plane.

Radiated energy and the physics of earthquake faulting [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2005
On the third day of a recent AGU Chapman Conference, held in Portland, Maine, near the Two Lights fault zones and the Fort Foster brittle zone, conference participants spent the gray June day scrambling over rocky ledges above the crashing surf along the coast of the Atlantic Ocean.With field trip leader Mark Swanson, who with his students has studied ...

The Earth's Surface Controls the Depth‐Dependent Seismic Radiation of Megathrust Earthquakes

open access: yesAGU Advances, 2021
Megathrust earthquakes exhibit a ubiquitous seismic radiation style: low‐frequency (LF) seismic energy is efficiently emitted from the shallowest portion of the fault, whereas high‐frequency (HF) seismic energy is efficiently emitted from the deepest ...

Depth-varying rupture properties of subduction zone megathrust faults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Subduction zone plate boundary megathrust faults accommodate relative plate motions with spatially varying sliding behavior. The 2004 Sumatra-Andaman (M_w 9.2), 2010 Chile (Mw 8.8), and 2011 Tohoku (M_w 9.0) great earthquakes had similar depth variations

Dissipation of Energy Radiated by Earthquakes

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2010
SUMMARY. - Representing radiated seismic energy as a sum of normal modes<br />we are able to develop approximate equations describing the dissipation of<br />this energy in the earth by solid friction. In particular we calculate total energy<br />radiated and spherically averaged dissipation as a function of depth.

Studies of Earthquake Energies in Taiwan: A Review

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2016
This paper reviews studies on earthquake energies, seismic efficiency, radiation efficiency, scaled energy and energy-magnitude law conducted by Taiwan seismologists and foreigners who used seismic data from Taiwan to study these problems.
