A window into the complexity of the dynamic rupture of the 2011 Mw 9 Tohoku-Oki earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The 2011 Mw 9 Tohoku-Oki earthquake, recorded by over 1000 near-field stations and multiple large-aperture arrays, is by far the best recorded earthquake in the history of seismology and provides unique opportunities to address fundamental issues in ...

Rupture Dynamics of Heterogeneous Frictional Interfaces [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2018
AbstractThe onset of sliding motion is conditional on the propagation of rupture fronts that detach the contacting asperities forming a frictional interface. These ruptures, when propagating over a fault surface, are the most common mechanism for an earthquake.

Analysis of the effects of stent-induced deformation on the hemodynamics of MCA aneurysms

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The use of a stent to coil an aneurysm can alter the position of the main blood vessel and affect blood flow within the sac. This study thoroughly examines the impact of stent-induced changes on the risk of MCA aneurysm rupture.

Non-monotonic dependence of the friction coefficient on heterogeneous stiffness

open access: yes, 2014
The complexity of the frictional dynamics at the microscopic scale makes difficult to identify all of its controlling parameters. Indeed, experiments on sheared elastic bodies have shown that the static friction coefficient depends on loading conditions,

Revisiting the 2020 Mw 6.8 Elaziğ, Türkiye Earthquake with Physics-Based 3D Numerical Simulations Constrained by Geodetic and Seismic Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Dynamic rupture simulations of earthquakes offer crucial insights into the physical mechanisms of driving fault slip and seismic hazards. By incorporating non-planar fault models that accurately represent subsurface structures, this study provides a ...

Star polymers rupture induced by constant forces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this work, we study the breakage process of an unknotted three-arm star-shaped polymer when it is pulled from its free ends by a constant force. The star polymer configuration is described through an array of monomers coupled by anharmonic bonds ...

Extracellular Matrix Dynamics and Fetal Membrane Rupture [PDF]

open access: yesReproductive Sciences, 2013
The extracellular matrix (ECM) plays an important role in determining cell and organ function: (1) it is an organizing substrate that provides tissue tensile strength; (2) it anchors cells and influences cell morphology and function via interaction with cell surface receptors; and (3) it is a reservoir for growth factors. Alterations in the content and

Recent Milestones in Unraveling the Full-Field Structure of Dynamic Shear Cracks and Fault Ruptures in Real-Time: From Photoelasticity to Ultrahigh-Speed Digital Image Correlation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The last few decades have seen great achievements in dynamic fracture mechanics. Yet, it was not possible to experimentally quantify the full-field behavior of dynamic fractures, until very recently.

Slow crack growth : models and experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The properties of slow crack growth in brittle materials are analyzed both theoretically and experimentally. We propose a model based on a thermally activated rupture process.
