What Happens When Two Ruptures Collide?
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.

A quasi-dynamic and self-consistent rupture model to simulate earthquake ruptures
Dynamic earthquake rupture modeling provides information on the rupture physics as the rupture velocity, frictions or tractions acting during the rupture process. Nevertheless, as often based on spatial gridded preset geometries, dynamic modeling is depending on many free parameters leading to both a high non-uniqueness of the results and large ...

Influence of Site Amplification Approaches in PSRA: Insights From Five Different Cities
Regional and national seismic hazard models used in probabilistic seismic risk analysis often rely on generalized proxy‐based site terms to account for ground shaking amplification. This can result in coarse representations of site response, which can introduce bias or additional uncertainty in the associated risk results.

Bayesian analysis on earthquake magnitude related to an active fault in Taiwan
It is understood that sample size could be an issue in earthquake statistical studies, causing the best estimate being too deterministic or less representative derived from limited statistics from observation.

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

Calculation of the local rupture speed of dynamically propagating earthquakes
The velocity at which a propagating earthquake advances on the fault surface is of pivotal importance in the contest of the source dynamics and in the modeling of the ground motions generation. In this paper the problem of the determination of the rupture speed (v_r) is considered.

This study presents the computational components and workflow developed to conduct probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) in New Zealand (NZ) using physics‐based ground‐motion simulations, referred to as “CyberShake NZ.” Semi‐automated procedures generate multiple realizations of kinematic rupture models, create rupture‐specific velocity models ...

Small-scale stress heterogeneity inferred many anti-repeating earthquakes in Sierra Valley, Nevada
Repeating earthquakes, which occur on overlapping rupture patches with the same focal mechanisms, provide insights into fault creep, earthquake cycle dynamics, triggering, and predictability.
