The biomechanics of amnion rupture: an X-ray diffraction study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2007 Pre-term birth is the leading cause of perinatal and neonatal mortality, 40% of which are attributed to the pre-term premature rupture of amnion. Rupture of amnion is thought to be associated with a corresponding decrease in the extracellular collagen ...

Effects of Barriers on Fault Rupture Process and Strong Ground Motion Based on Various Friction Laws
Applied Sciences, 2020 A barrier may induce a supershear rupture on a fault. This paper focuses on two questions: One is whether the existence of a barrier accelerates the propagation speed of a whole fault rupture, and the other is what are the effects of friction laws and ...

Multifractal Scaling of Thermally Activated Rupture Processes [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2005 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]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2005 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 ...

Creep rupture as a non-homogeneous Poissonian process [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2013 Creep rupture of heterogeneous materials occurring under constant sub-critical external loads is responsible for the collapse of engineering constructions and for natural catastrophes. Acoustic monitoring of crackling bursts provides microscopic insight into the failure process.

Atherosclerotic Plaque Rupture [PDF]
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2003 It is generally established that the unstable plaque is the major cause of acute clinical sequelae of atherosclerosis. Unfortunately, terms indicating lesions prone to plaque instability, such as “vulnerable plaque,” and the different phenotypes of unstable plaques, such as plaque rupture, plaque fissuring, intraplaque hemorrhage, and erosion, are ...

Earthquake Source Characterization Using 3D Numerical Modeling [PDF]
, 2007 To understand the physics of earthquakes, it is important to know what happens during individual events. Dissembling the information about the source process from the recorded seismograms is a difficult and non-unique process, as there are severe trade ...
