Behind the Curtain: COVID‐19 as a Lens to Precarity in Museum Labor

open access: yesCurator: The Museum Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using in‐depth interviews with emerging and early professional museum workers in New Orleans, Louisiana, this article expands on scholarship around the perceived and actual value of nonprofit labor. It adds qualitative support to the argument that museum labor is real labor—open to exploitation and abuse while constantly negotiated internally ...

Small-scale stress heterogeneity inferred many anti-repeating earthquakes in Sierra Valley, Nevada

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
Repeating earthquakes, which occur on overlapping rupture patches with the same focal mechanisms, provide insights into fault creep, earthquake cycle dynamics, triggering, and predictability.

Dynamic Wedge Failure and Along‐Arc Variations of Tsunamigenesis in the Japan Trench Margin

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2019
Elastic dislocation models require large near‐trench slip to explain large tsunamigenesis, which is probably best exemplified in the 2011 M9 Tohoku earthquake. However, it is puzzling that the largest Tohoku tsunami heights occurred about 100 km north of

Ecology in Hartmut Rosa's Theory of Resonance: A Four‐Level Reconstruction

open access: yesDialog, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article discusses Hartmut Rosa's sociological theory of resonance with special emphasis on religion and ecology. In Rosa, resonance experiences refer to (always) participatory and (normally) enlivening world relations. I argue that Rosa's resonance theory is multi‐pronged and covers at least three interconnected levels.

What Happens When Two Ruptures Collide?

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
We investigate the interaction between two rupture fronts as they propagate toward each other and ultimately collide. This phenomenon was observed during laboratory experiments conducted on poly methyl methacrylate.

Tests and Analyses to Study Monotonic and Cyclic Fracture Behavior of C‐Mn Steel

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The present study is aimed at experiments/analyses on monotonic and cyclic fracture behavior of C‐Mn steel at temperatures (T) varying from 28°C to 300°C. The fracture tests have been performed on standard compact tension specimens under different crack mouth opening displacement (CMOD) rates and load ratios (R: 0, −0.5, and −1) in a dynamic ...

Predictable and unpredictable aspects of earthquakes from P-wave onsets of acceleration seismograms

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
It is widely acknowledged that predicting the final size of an earthquake from the P-wave onset in seismograms is nearly impossible. We confirm this fact by measuring the slope (parameter $$B$$ B ) of the acceleration record shortly after onset assuming ...

Earthquake simulations with time-dependent nucleation and long-range interactions [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 1995
A model for rapid simulation of earthquake sequences is introduced which incorporates long-range elastic interactions among fault elements and time-dependent earthquake nucleation inferred from experimentally derived rate- and state-dependent fault ...

The 2004 and 2005 Sumatra Earthquakes: Implications for the Lisbon earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The Sumatra mega-earthquake of 26 December 2004 (Mw=9.3) was the strongest earthquake in the world since the 1964 Alaska earthquake and the fifth strongest since 1900. The earthquake occurred at the interface of the India and Burma plates and triggered a
