Simultaneous rupture propagation through fault bifurcation of the 2021 Mw7.4 Maduo earthquake
AbstractFault geometric complexity plays a critical role in earthquake rupture dimension. Fault bifurcations are commonly observed in earthquake geology, yet, robust kinematic rupture processes on bifurcated fault branches are largely missing, limiting our understanding of rupture dynamics and seismic hazard.

Analysis of Damage Mechanism of Heihe Bridge during the Maduo Earthquake
Abstract It is of great significance to discuss the earthquake damage mechanism of the bridge. In this paper, the seismic damage mechanism of Heihe Bridge is analyzed based on the post earthquake data. Firstly, the seismic response of Heihe Bridge is analyzed based on the finite element software Midas/Civil, and the model of Heihe Bridge

Bridge’s Overall Structural Scheme Analysis in High Seismic Risk Permafrost Regions [PDF]
The mechanism of pile-soil reaction in frozen ground is not clear at present, but it is obvious that the reduction of dead weight will be beneficial to the seismic resistance of bridges.
