Seismic moment tensor catalog for Minto Flats fault zone (2000-2014) [PDF]
We present moment tensor solutions for 15 earthquakes in the Minto Flats fault zone. Moment tensor solutions were generated using body waves and surface waves.

Small World Picture of Worldwide Seismic Events
The understanding of long-distance relations between seismic activities has for long been of interest to seismologists and geologists. In this paper we have used data from the world-wide earthquake catalog for the period between 1972 and 2011 to generate

A Performance‐Based Earthquake Fatality Modeling Framework Using Collapse Volume Ratios
Conventional earthquake fatality models are commonly implemented using a binary representation of building collapse, an assumption that overlooks severe failure modes and systematically underestimates fatalities. To address this limitation, this study advances the collapse volume ratio—a continuous metric quantifying the reduction of survivable space ...

Impact of global seismicity on sea level change assessment
We analyze the effect of seismic activity on sealevel variations, by computing the time-dependent vertical crustal movement and geoid change due to coseismic deformations and postseismic relaxation effects.

Engineers frequently use simplified seismic slope displacement procedures to evaluate the performance of earth structures and natural slopes. Current practices typically adopt Newmark‐type and semi‐empirical seismic displacement prediction models (SDPMs) to estimate the seismic slope displacements (D) based on ground motion intensity measures at a ...

Earthquake recurrence as a record breaking process
Extending the central concept of recurrence times for a point process to recurrent events in space-time allows us to characterize seismicity as a record breaking process using only spatiotemporal relations among events.

In this paper, the physics‐based numerical simulation of the strongest instrumental earthquake in the recent seismic history of Italy, i.e., the Nov 23, 1980 Irpinia earthquake in Southern Italy, with magnitude MW 6.8, is presented and discussed. A 3D spectral element model covering an extended region (147 × 110 km2) was constructed, with a frequency ...

Abstract Constructing reliable earthquake catalogs in regions with sparse station coverage and strong noise remains challenging. We evaluate the performance of a deep‐learning–based detection and location workflow (LOC‐FLOW) using the 2017 Changdao offshore earthquake swarm in eastern China.
