Broadband Waveform Modeling Over a Dense Seismic Network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We developed a "two-way" calibration technique for studying clustered events, particularly their mechanisms and rupture directivities. First, we demonstrate that the magnitude 4 events with known source mechanisms can be used to calibrate the path ...

Gas slug ascent through changes in conduit diameter : Laboratory insights into a volcano-seismic source process in low-viscosity magmas. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Seismic signals generated during the flow and degassing of low-viscosity magmas include long-period (LP) and very-long-period (VLP) events, whose sources are often attributed to dynamic fluid processes within the conduit.We present the results of ...

Seismic moment distribution [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 1991
SUMMARY We review possible errors in determining the size of earthquakes. We propose that the size distribution can be effectively defined only for earthquake sequences, not for ‘individual’ earthquakes. As a result of the error analysis, we question the validity of many reported correlations between the 6-value and spatio-temporal characteristics of ...

The first-order statistical moment of the seismic moment tensor [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 1985
Summary. If a complex earthquake is assumed to be a set of individual, randomly oriented elementary pure double couple sources, the solution for the seismic moment of the complex event projected on the mean trend of the fault will perforce be comprised of sources of both double couple and compensated linear vector dipole (CLVD) types.

Development of nonlinear analytical model and seismic analyses of a steel frame with self-centering devices and viscoelastic dampers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper highlights the role of advanced structural analysis tools on the conception of high-performance earthquake-resistant structural systems. A new steel frame equipped with self-centering devices and viscoelastic dampers is described.

Numerical Simulations of the Apollo S‐IVB Artificial Impacts on the Moon

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2021
The third stage of the Saturn IV rocket used in the five Apollo missions made craters on the Moon ∼30 m in diameter. Their initial impact conditions were known, so they can be considered controlled impacts.

Slip distributions on active normal faults measured from LiDAR and field mapping of geomorphic offsets: an example from L'Aquila, Italy, and implications for modelling seismic moment release [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Surface slip distributions for an active normal fault in central Italy have been measured using terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), in order to assess the impact of changes in fault orientation and kinematics when modelling subsurface slip distributions ...

Correlation Dimension in Sumatra Island Based on Active Fault, Earthquake Data, and Estimated Horizontal Crustal Strain to Evaluate Seismic Hazard Functions (SHF)

open access: yesGeoHazards, 2022
This study intends to evaluate the possible correlation between the correlation dimension (DC) and the seismic moment rate for different late Quaternary active fault data, shallow crustal earthquakes, and GPS on the island of Sumatra Probabilistic ...

Radiative transfer theory for estimation of the seismic moment [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2006
SUMMARY We propose a new technique to obtain source spectra and seismic moments of regional earthquakes from envelopes of seismic coda. As compared to existing methods, our approach is based on a physical model of the scattering process that produces the seismic coda.

Temporal variation in seismic moment release rate of slow slips inferred from deep low-frequency tremors in the Nankai subduction zone

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2020
We examined seismic moment release rates as estimated from deep low-frequency tremors at episodic tremor and slip (ETS) zones on the plate interface in the Nankai subduction zone.
