Locking on a megathrust as a cause of distributed faulting and fault-jumping earthquakes [PDF]
Seismicity on large faults is often characterized in terms of an independent recurrence time and magnitude distribution, which forms the basis for calculating future earthquake probabilities. The underlying assumption is that the driving mechanism for earthquakes on any particular fault is uniquely linked to that fault, determined by the rate of long ...

A new method for the determination of the locking range of oscillators [PDF]
A time-domain method for the determination of the injection-locking range of oscillators is presented. The method involves three time dimensions: the first and the second are warped time scales used for the free-running frequency and the external ...

Long wavelength VCSEL-by-VCSEL optical injection-Locking [PDF]
VCSEL-by-VCSEL optical injection-locking to obtain high cut-off frequencies of 1.3 μm Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) is demonstrated. A detailed physical explanation of the underlying mechanism is presented.

Comparison of the effect of locking vs standard screws on the mechanical properties of bone-plate constructs in a comminuted diaphyseal fracture model [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to compare the mechanical properties of bone-plate constructs with locking compression plates (LCP) used either with standard screws or with locking screws on an experimental model of comminuted ...

The Weihe Fault is an important basement fault that is buried deep and controls the formation, evolution, and seismicity of the Weihe Basin. It has been quiescent for more than 300 years with only a few moderate and small earthquakes distributed unevenly.

Fault locking, block rotation and crustal deformation in the Pacific Northwest [PDF]
SummaryWe interpret Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements in the northwestern United States and adjacent parts of western Canada to describe relative motions of crustal blocks, locking on faults and permanent deformation associated with convergence between the Juan de Fuca and North American plates.

Asymmetric Interseismic Strain across the Western Altyn Tagh Fault from InSAR
As the northern boundary of the Tibetan Plateau, the long Altyn Tagh fault (ATF) controls the regional tectonic environment, and the study of its long-term fault slip rate is key to understanding the tectonic evolution and deformation of the northern ...

Linking earthquake magnitude‐frequency statistics and stress in visco‐frictional fault zone models [PDF]
The ability to estimate the likelihood of given earthquake magnitudes is critical for seismic hazard assessment. Earthquake magnitude‐recurrence statistics are empirically linked to stress, yet which fault‐zone processes explain this link remains debated.
