Random stress and Omori's law [PDF]
We consider two statistical regularities that were used to explain Omori's law of the aftershock rate decay: the Levy and Inverse Gaussian (IGD) distributions. These distributions are thought to describe stress behavior influenced by various random factors: post-earthquake stress time history is described by a Brownian motion.

Influence of Rock Watering on Post-Seismic Activity: A Study on the Khibiny Massif
The article is devoted to the study of the influence of watering of the rock environment on post-seismic activity in the deposits of the Khibiny mountains.

Comprehensive analysis of tornado statistics in comparison to earthquakes: intensity and temporal behaviour [PDF]
Tornadoes and earthquakes are characterised by a high variability in their properties concerning intensity, geometric properties and temporal behaviour. Earthquakes are known for power-law behaviour in their intensity (Gutenberg–Richter law) and temporal

Strong to great earthquakes considerably weaken the structural strength of the subsurface strata and civil constructions. The occurrence of Mw ≥ 5 aftershocks further contributes to the loss of human lives and damage to property.

Omori law for sliding of blocks on inclined rough surfaces [PDF]
Long sequences of slidings of solid blocks on an inclined rough surface submitted to small controlled perturbations are examined and scaling relations are found for the time distribution of slidings between pairs of large events as well as after and before the largest events. These scaling laws are similar to the Omori law in seismology but the scaling

In this study, we investigate how a stress variation generated by a fault that experiences transient postseismic slip (TPS) affects the rate of aftershocks.

The characterization and understanding of rock deformation processes due to fluid flow is a challenging problem with numerous applications. The signature of this problem can be found in Earth Science and Physics, notably with applications in natural ...

“Aftershock Faults” and What They Could Mean for Seismic Hazard Assessment [PDF]
We study stress‐loading mechanisms for the California faults used in rupture forecasts. Stress accumulation drives earthquakes, and that accumulation mechanism governs recurrence.

Phenomenology of aftershocks: Once more on the Omori Law
Omori Law describes the evolution of the aftershocks of a strong earthquake. Established at the end of the century before last, it is characterized by the beauty of its form, quite definite clarity, as a result of which it still attracts considerable attention of the geophysical community. In recent years, we have accumulated considerable experience in
