Applying the Coulomb Failure Function with an optimally oriented plane to the 2008 Mw 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake triggering [PDF]

, 2010
The Coulomb failure function (CFF) quantitatively describes static stress changes in secondary faults near the source fault of an earthquake. CFF can be employed to monitor how static stress transfers and then shed some light on the probability of ...

Pre-seismic geomagnetic fusion anomaly extraction based on Spatially Weighted Non-negative Tensor Factorization [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
Earthquake preparation processes are known to generate geomagnetic anomalies in some cases. Existing methods for extracting pre-seismic geomagnetic anomalies from multi-station observations are limited by the lack of physically meaningful constraints ...

A comparison of the governance landscape of earthquake risk reduction in Nepal and the Indian State of Bihar [PDF]

, 2016
On 25 April 2015, a Mw 7.8 earthquake struck central Nepal, killing more than 8,700 people. An earthquake of this magnitude has long been anticipated in Nepal and the neighbouring northern Indian state of Bihar, which straddle the active Himalayan ...

The global earthquake history

, 2014
The study of earthquakes from historical sources, or historical seismology, was considered an early priority for the Global Earthquake Model (GEM) project, which commissioned a study of historical seismicity on a global scale.

A Minimal Model Illuminates the Physics of Pulse‐Like Seismic Rupture and Oscillatory Slip Rates in Damaged Faults

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 4, 28 February 2025.
Abstract Fault zones are often surrounded by a damage zone that exhibits lower seismic velocities than the wall rock, influencing earthquake propagation and arrest. We present a one‐dimensional minimal model of frictional rupture that approximates the elastodynamics of a fault embedded within a damage zone.
