A Multiplex Rupture Sequence Under Complex Fault Network Due To Preceding Earthquake Swarms During the 2024 Mw 7.5 Noto Peninsula, Japan, Earthquake

Geophysical Research Letters
A devastating earthquake with moment magnitude 7.5 occurred in the Noto Peninsula in central Japan on 1 January 2024. We estimate the rupture evolution of this earthquake from teleseismic P‐wave data using the potency‐density tensor inversion method ...

Two‐stage composite megathrust rupture of the 2015 Mw8.4 Illapel, Chile, earthquake identified by spectral‐element inversion of teleseismic waves

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
The Mw8.4 Illapel earthquake occurred on 16 September was the largest global event in 2015. This earthquake was not unexpected because the hypocenter was located in a seismic gap of the Peru‐Chile subduction zone. However, the source model derived from 3‐

On the modeling of strong motion parameters and correlation with historical macroseismic data: an application to the 1915 Avezzano earthquake

Annals of Geophysics, 1995
This article describes the results of a ground motion modeling study of the 1915 Avezzano earthquake. The goal was to test assuinptions regarding the rupture process of this earthquake by attempting to model the damage to historical monuments and ...

Short-period rupture process of the 2010 Mw 8.8 maule earthquake in Chile

, 2012
International audienceThe 2010 Maule earthquake is one of the largest events ever recorded with modern instruments. We used the continuous GPS (cGPS) records to invert for the kinematic rupture process using an elliptical sub-patch approximation.

Exceptionally Elongated Strike‐Slip Rupture Caused by the 2025 MW 7.8 Myanmar Earthquake

Geophysical Research Letters
The interplay between fault geometry and rupture behavior remains poorly understood. The 2025 Myanmar earthquake ruptured the Sagaing fault, a major continental strike‐slip fault with simple geometry.
