Fault-zone geology: lessons from drilling through the Nojima and Chelungpu faults [PDF]
Abstract Several drilling projects have been conducted through active faults with the aim of learning about the geology of the fault zones and tentatively correlating the structure and mineralogy of the fault zones with their seismological behaviour during recent earthquakes.

The geophysics, geology and mechanics of slow fault slip [PDF]
Abstract Modern geodetic and seismologic observations describe the behavior of fault slip over a vast range of spatial and temporal scales. Slip at sub-seismogenic speeds is evident from top to bottom of lithospheric faults and plays an important role throughout the earthquake cycle.

Earthquake geology of the Bulnay Fault (Mongolia) [PDF]
The Bulnay earthquake of 23 July 1905 (Mw 8.3–8.5), in north‐central Mongolia, is one of the world’s largest recorded intracontinental earthquakes and one of four great earthquakes that occurred in the region during the twentieth century. The 375 km long

Earthquake Geology of the Lembang Fault, West Java, Indonesia
Abstract The Lembang Fault is a major fault in western Java that skirts the northern edge of Bandung, one of Indonesia's largest cities, just south of the active Tangkuban Perahu volcano. Although it has no recorded or historical large earthquakes, the Lembang Fault shows obvious geomorphic evidence of recent activity and has long been thought to be ...

Geological recognition and potential analysis of D block [PDF]
Under the guidance of petroleum geology, on the basis of in-depth understanding of the geological characteristics of D block such as structure and sedimentation and the law of oil and gas enrichment, this paper discusses the reservoir potential of D ...

The Hayward fault in California's San Francisco Bay area produces large earthquakes, with the last occurring in 1868. We examine how physics‐based dynamic rupture modeling can be used to numerically simulate large earthquakes on not only the Hayward ...

Fault gouges result from the sliding of brittle faults and can be used to determine the deformational characteristics, formation ages and weakening mechanisms of earthquake faults, which are of great significance for structural geology and earthquake ...

Geology as a Metaphor in Graham Swift’s Ever After (1992)
In Ever After, Graham Swift’s fifth novel, Matthew Pearce, the main narrator’s ancestor, is a Victorian surveyor who chronicles in his Notebooks how his reading of Charles Lyell’s Principles of Geology (1830-1833) and Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of ...
