Stochastic Semi-Physical Model for Nonstationary Spatially Variable Ground Motions in an Engineering Site

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Spatially variable ground motions are crucial for the seismic analysis and design of extended and multi-support structures. In this study, a new random nonstationary spatially variable ground motion model based on the propagation process of seismic waves

Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating
