Hillslope memory and spatial and temporal distributions of earthquake-induced landslides [PDF]
, 2013 Large earthquakes commonly trigger widespread and destructive landsliding. However, current approaches to modeling regional-scale landslide activity do not account for the temporal evolution of progressive failure in brittle hillslope materials ...

AGU AdvancesSlow slip events (SSEs) have been observed in spatial and temporal proximity to megathrust earthquakes in various subduction zones, including the 2014 Mw 7.3 Guerrero, Mexico earthquake which was preceded by a Mw 7.6 SSE.

Gender &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Australian women were among the first in the world to receive electoral suffrage, yet it took until 1997 before they had full equality of jury suffrage. This article examines the debate around female jurors by focusing less on discourses of citizenship than on the subterranean spatial arrangements upon which equality depended.

Rupture Dynamics of Cascading Earthquakes in a Multiscale Fracture Network
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid EarthAbstract Fault‐damage zones comprise multiscale fracture networks that may slip dynamically and interact with the main fault during earthquake rupture. Using 3D dynamic rupture simulations and scale‐dependent fracture energy, we examine dynamic interactions of more than 800 intersecting multiscale fractures ...

The aesthetic sublime of megaproject structures: A framework and a research agenda
European Management Review, EarlyView.Abstract The physical structures of megaprojects—such as mega‐canals, metros, railway lines, bridges, tunnels, and iconic opera houses—hold a profound capacity to generate aesthetic experiences with enduring societal impact. Yet, research on megaprojects has predominantly focused on functionality and economic rationale with aesthetics being pushed to ...

Visual, vestibular, and ocular motor changes during nitroglycerin‐triggered vestibular migraine
Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.Plain Language Summary Vestibular migraine (VM) is a common cause of intermittent dizziness, but there have been no studies with provoked (induced) VM used to characterize how the vestibular and ocular (vision) systems interact. We injected 20 patients with VM with nitroglycerin to provoke an attack and used a specialized camera to record their eye ...

Development of an open-source platform for calculating losses from earthquakes [PDF]
, 2012 Risk analysis has a critical role in the reduction of casualties and damages due to earthquakes. Recognition of this relation has led to a rapid rise in demand for accurate, reliable and flexible risk assessment numerical tools and software.

War, Trauma and Diasporic Identity in Vyvyane Loh's Breaking the Tongue
World Englishes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Japan's involvement in the Second World War offers provocative narrative material for authors who write about the cultural politics of race under wartime conditions, such as the internment experience of Japanese Americans in the United States and the mass killings of Chinese (Operation Sook Ching), suspected of anti‐Japanese sentiments in ...

Back‐Propagating Earthquake Rupture Controlled by Fluid‐Modulated Effective Normal Stress
Geophysical Research LettersBack‐propagating earthquake rupture (BPR), where slip migrates opposite to the main rupture direction, is observed in several earthquakes but its origin remains poorly understood, particularly the role of fluids.
