Earthquake rupture process - Open Access .click

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1985
The large Mindanao earthquake (Mw = 8.1) of August 16, 1976, presents a complex rupture history. The epicenter of this earthquake is located at the southern end of the 160×80 km2 aftershock area, and the thrust mechanism with a shallow NE dipping plane indicates the subduction of the North Celebes Sea beneath Mindanao.

A kinematic self-similar rupture process for earthquakes

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 1994
Abstract The basic assumption that the self-similarity and the spectral law of the seismic body-wave radiation (e.g., ω-square model) must find their origin in some simple self-similar process during the seismic rupture led us to construct a kinematic, self-similar model of earthquakes.

The rupture process of the Peru intermediate and deep earthquakes

2020
<p>The seismicity of Peru is associated with the subduction process of the Nazca plate under South America and characterized by the occurrence of shallow, intermediate and deep earthquakes. In this study, we focus our attention on the rupture process of earthquakes (Mw>6.0 ) that occurred during the period 2018-2019 at ...
