Establishing the Pre-requisites of Post-disaster Reconstruction in Rural Settlements (Case study: Estalakh-kouhVillage) [PDF]
A major part of land in Iran is located on the high to very high seismic risk territory. The recurring destruction and life-loss or human casualties in rural settlements are very often due to this natural phenomenon.

Quantification of rheological parameters in deep‐sea mining plumes
This study explores the variations in rheological properties observed during the propagation of deep‐sea mining plumes, utilizing rheological test data obtained from kaolin clay plumes. Subsequently, taking into account the differences in sediment properties, the effects of clay content and clay mineral composition on the rheological parameters of ...

Abstract One of the significant challenges faced in shield tunnel construction is the risk of collapse resulting from abrupt changes in soil conditions in advance of the working face, particularly within the sandy cobble stratum. This study aims to effectively manage these sudden variations and to further investigate the failure mechanisms associated ...

Third sector organizations and earthquake recovery planning in Christchurch, New Zealand [PDF]
On September 4, 2010, an earthquake struck rural Canterbury and the most deadly of over 2,000 aftershocks devastated the Christchurch Central Business District on February 22, 2011 (Ardagh et al. 2012). Questions have arisen regarding population dynamics

SPIDER: Scalable Probabilistic Inference for Differential Earthquake Relocation
Seismicity catalogs are larger than ever due to an explosion of techniques for enhanced earthquake detection and an abundance of high-quality datasets. Bayesian inference is a popular framework for locating earthquakes due to its ability to propagate and quantify uncertainty into the inversion results, but traditional methods do not scale well to high ...

Double difference relocation of local earthquakes in the Nepal Himalaya
Interseismic strain across the Himalaya is associated with intense microseismic activity. In this study we analyze in detail this seismicity to explore in more details how it relates to Himalayan tectonics. We use the Double Difference Relocation Method to relocate local earthquakes recorded by National Seismological Centre in the period between 1995 ...

This article aims to investigate the dynamic fracture response of fractured tunnel models under zero geological stress through physical experiments and numerical simulations. It further simulates the dynamic fracture characteristics of fractured tunnel models under geological stress ranging from 0 to 2.5 MPa using the numerical software AUTODYN ...

Co-seismic deformation during the M_w 7.3 Aqaba earthquake (1995) from ERS-SAR interferometry [PDF]
The M_w 7.3 1995 Aqaba earthquake is the largest instrumental earthquake along the Dead Sea Fault. We complement previous seismological studies by analyzing co‐seismic ground displacement from differential interferometry computed from ERS images spanning

On 14 July 2025, an Mw 5.3 earthquake occurred in the northeastern Alboran Sea, Spain. Its epicenter was close to the Eastern Betics Shear Zone, a region that has historically experienced major destructive earthquakes, including events with macroseismic ...
