Rupture Process of Subduction-Zone Earthquakes [PDF]
This review is primarily concerned with the rupture process of large subduction-zone earthquakes determined by various seismological methods, and with its interpretation in terms of an asperity model.

Creep rupture as a non-homogeneous Poissonian process [PDF]
Creep rupture of heterogeneous materials occurring under constant sub-critical external loads is responsible for the collapse of engineering constructions and for natural catastrophes.

Stochastic finite-fault method controlled by the fault rupture process [PDF]
We present an improved stochastic finite-fault method controlled by the fault rupture process (NNSIM) which can make the simulated strong ground motion at a broad frequency band similar to real ground motion of the Ms 7.0 Lushan earthquake by introducing

How Does Dissipation Affect the Transition from Static to Dynamic Macroscopic Friction? [PDF]
Description of the transitional process from a static to a dynamic frictional regime is a fundamental problem of modern physics. Previously, we developed a model based on the well-known Frenkel-Kontorova model to describe dry macroscopic friction.

Investigation for atherosclerotic plaque rupture with thrombosis in mice based on single-cell sequencing and bioinformatics analysis [PDF]
IntroductionAtherosclerotic plaque rupture with thrombus formation leads to severe cardiovascular events. We hoped to explore the hub genes providing critical roles in the process of atherosclerotic plaque rupture accompanied by thrombus formation, which

Earthquake Damage Patterns Resolve Complex Rupture Processes [PDF]
AbstractFracture damage patterns around faults induced by dynamic earthquake rupture are an invaluable record to clarify the rupture process on complex fault networks. The 2016 Mw 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake in New Zealand has been reported as one of the most complex earthquakes ever documented that ruptured at least 15 crustal faults.

Multifractal Scaling of Thermally Activated Rupture Processes [PDF]
We propose a ``multifractal stress activation'' model combining thermally activated rupture and long memory stress relaxation, which predicts that seismic decay rates after mainshocks follow the Omori law $\sim 1/t^p$ with exponents $p$ linearly increasing with the magnitude $M_L$ of the mainshock and the inverse temperature.

Earthquake lights and rupture processes [PDF]
Abstract. A physical model of earthquake lights is proposed. It is suggested that the magnetic diffusion from the electric and magnetic fields source region is a dominant process, explaining rather high localization of the light flashes. A 3D numerical code allowing to take into account the arbitrary distribution of currents caused by ground motion ...
