Laboratory Study on Fluid‐Induced Fault Slip Behavior: The Role of Fluid Pressurization Rate

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2020
Understanding the physical mechanisms governing fluid‐induced fault slip is important for improved mitigation of seismic risks associated with large‐scale fluid injection.

Spatial Slip Rate Distribution Along the SE Xianshuihe Fault, Eastern Tibet, and Earthquake Hazard Assessment

open access: yesTectonics, 2021
The Xianshuihe (XSH) fault in eastern Tibet is one of the most active faults in China, with the next large earthquake most likely to occur along its SE part, where the fault splits into three parallel branches: Yalahe, Selaha and Zheduotang (ZDT ...

Mechanical Mechanism of Fault Dislocation Based on in situ Stress State

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Fault dislocation occurs under certain stress conditions. Based on the mechanical relationship between the direction of crustal stress and fault occurrence, three criteria – fault dislocation trend, fault strike dislocation trend, and dip dislocation ...

Interseismic strain accumulation: Spin-up, cycle invariance, and irregular rupture sequences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Using models of infinite length strike-slip faults in an elastic layer above linear viscoelastic regions, we investigate interseismic deformation. In the models we investigate, interseismic strain accumulation on mature faults is the result of the ...

Injection‐Induced Seismic Moment Release and Laboratory Fault Slip: Implications for Fluid‐Induced Seismicity

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2020
Understanding the relation between injection‐induced seismic moment release and operational parameters is crucial for early identification of possible seismic hazards associated with fluid‐injection projects.

Study on the relationship between multi-stage strike-slip mechanism and basin evolution in Fangzheng fault depression

open access: yesEarth Sciences Research Journal, 2018
Fangzheng fault depression is controlled by the northern of the Tan-Lu fault zone. It undergoes multi-stage strike-slip, extrusion modification, and erosion of the thermal uplift, forming a tectonic pattern of uplifts connected with sags.

Effects of uncertainty in fault parameters on deterministic tsunami hazard assessment: examples for active faults along the eastern margin of the Sea of Japan

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2022
We investigated the effects of fault parameter uncertainty on the deterministic assessment of tsunami hazards for the submarine and coastal active faults in the Sea of Japan that were recently modeled by the Integrated Research Project on Seismic and ...

Genetic Types of the tp12cx Strike-Slip Fault Segments and Their Role in Controlling Reservoirs in the Tarim Basin

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The change of motion mode of multistage active strike-slip faults controls the segmentary types of strike-slip faults, which is seldom studied.Based on high-precision 3D seismic data and the principle of structural analysis, this paper defines the ...

Slip in the 2010–2011 Canterbury earthquakes, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The 3rd September 2010 Mw 7.1 Darfield and 21st February 2011 Mw 6.3 Christchurch (New Zealand) earthquakes occurred on previously unknown faults. We use InSAR ground displacements, SAR amplitude offsets, field mapping, aerial photographs, satellite ...

Constraints on fault and lithosphere rheology from the coseismic slip and postseismic afterslip of the 2006 M_w 7.0 Mozambique earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The 2006 M_w 7.0 Mozambique (Machaze) normal-faulting earthquake ruptured an unusually steeply dipping fault plane (~75°). The amount of slip in the earthquake decreased from depths of ~10 km toward the surface, and this shallow slip deficit was at least
