Rupture Process of Subduction-Zone Earthquakes [PDF]

, 1986
This review is primarily concerned with the rupture process of large subduction-zone earthquakes determined by various seismological methods, and with its interpretation in terms of an asperity model.

Seismic source in the Iberian-African plate boundary [PDF]

, 2003
The plate boundary between Iberia and Africa has been studied using data on seismicity and focal mechanisms. The region has been divided into three areas: A; the Gulf of Cadiz; B, the Betics, Alboran Sea and northern Morocco; and C, Algeria.

Earthquake forecasting and its verification [PDF]

, 2005
No proven method is currently available for the reliable short time prediction of earthquakes (minutes to months). However, it is possible to make probabilistic hazard assessments for earthquake risk. These are primarily based on the association of small

Normal fault earthquakes or graviquakes [PDF]

, 2015
Earthquakes are dissipation of energy throughout elastic waves. Canonically is the elastic energy accumulated during the interseismic period. However, in crustal extensional settings, gravity is the main energy source for hangingwall fault collapsing ...

Coseismic changes in subsurface structure associated with the 2018 Hokkaido Eastern Iburi Earthquake detected using autocorrelation analysis of ambient seismic noise

Earth, Planets and Space, 2019
Autocorrelation analysis using ambient noise is a useful method to detect temporal changes in wave velocity and scattering property. In this study, we investigated the temporal changes in seismic wave velocity and scattering property in the focal region ...

Magnitude estimation for early warning applications using the initial part of P waves: A case study on the 2008 Wenchuan sequence [PDF]

, 2009
A period parameter τ_c and an amplitude parameter Pd determined from the very beginning of P wave are important for earthquake early warning (EEW), yet their dependence on source mechanism, focal depth and epicentral distance has not been fully studied ...

A semi-automated algorithm to quantify scarp morphology (SPARTA): application to normal faults in southern Malawi [PDF]

Solid Earth, 2019
Along-strike variation in scarp morphology reflects differences in a fault's geomorphic and structural development and can thus indicate fault rupture history and mechanical segmentation. Parameters that define scarp morphology (height, width, slope) are

A way to synchronize models with seismic faults for earthquake forecasting: Insights from a simple stochastic model

, 2006
Numerical models are starting to be used for determining the future behaviour of seismic faults and fault networks. Their final goal would be to forecast future large earthquakes.

Importance of small earthquakes for stress transfers and earthquake triggering

, 2004
We estimate the relative importance of small and large earthquakes for static stress changes and for earthquake triggering, assuming that earthquakes are triggered by static stress changes and that earthquakes are located on a fractal network of ...

Application of the Fractional Riccati Equation for Mathematical Modeling of Dynamic Processes with Saturation and Memory Effect

Fractal and Fractional, 2022
In this study, the model Riccati equation with variable coefficients as functions, as well as a derivative of a fractional variable order (VO) of the Gerasimov-Caputo type, is used to approximate the data for some physical processes with saturation.
