Application of an inhomogeneous stress (patch) model to complex subduction zone earthquakes: A discrete interaction matrix approach [PDF]
, 1987 In recent years it has been recognized that the level of shear and normal stress along a fault can vary; thus the stress is spatially and temporally inhomogeneous.

In situ stress magnitude and rock strength in the Nankai accretionary complex: a novel approach using paired constraints from downhole data in two wells [PDF]
, 2016 We present a method to simultaneously constrain both far-field horizontal stress magnitudes (S hmin and S Hmax) and in situ rock unconfined compressive strength (UCS), using geophysical logging data from two boreholes located 70 m apart that access the ...

The role of compaction contrasts in sediments in décollement initiation in an accretionary prism [PDF]
, 2011 International audienceTo understand how décollements develop into the pristine sedimentary succession entering subduction zones, we have performed mechanical tests on samples from the sediment column entering the Nankai accretionary prism, Japan (ODP ...

Estimate of the contraction rate of central Japan through the deformation of the Philippine Sea slab
Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2019 The Philippine Sea (PHS) slab is severely deformed beneath central Japan, but it is subject to little deformation before the subduction along the Nankai Trough.

構造研究に基づく南海トラフ（西部）地震発生帯のプレート形状および速度構造の3次元モデル [PDF]
, 2013 Great interplate earthquakes have repeatedly occurred in pairs along the Nankai Trough. In order to reduce a great deal of damage to coastal area from both strong ground motion and tsunami generation, it is necessary to understand rupture synchronization

Anelastic strain recovery reveals extension across SW Japan subduction zone [PDF]
, 2009 Sediment dominated convergent margins typically record substantial horizontal shortening often associated with great earthquakes. The convergent margin south of Japan is arguably one of the most extensively investigated margins and previous studies ...

Bioinspired Morphology‐Decoupled Soft Gripper with Enhanced Bidirectional Grasping Capability
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Inspired by biological predation, a novel gripper decouples cross‐modal grasping via dual morphological configurations. Synergistically integrating hybrid rigid and soft coupled fingers with a metamaterial palm, the system performs active compliant grasping for static objects and passive cage capture for dynamic targets.
