A unified moment magnitude earthquake catalog for Northeast India

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2021
Earthquake-related studies on seismicity and seismic hazard assessment need a homogenous earthquake catalog for the region studied. A homogenous earthquake catalog for Northeast India region was compiled using derived regional and global empirical ...

Optimal estimation of scalar seismic moment [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1982
Summary. For any seismic source specified by a frequency-dependent moment-rate tensor M(ω), we define the total moment MT(ω) =||M||/2 and the isotropic moment MI(ω) =|trM|/6. A method is presented for estimating these scalar seismic moments from noisy seismic data when the source mechanism is uncertain or completely unknown.

Energy budgeting of laboratory hydraulic fracturing in granite with different viscosity injection fluids

open access: yesGeomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources
In this study, we investigated the source parameters of microseismicity detected during laboratory hydraulic fracturing (HF) of granite conducted with high- (gear oil/1000 cP) and low- (water/1 cP) viscosity injection fluids.

Mechanism for Deep Crustal Seismicity: Insight From Modeling of Deformation Processes at the Main Ethiopian Rift

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
We combine numerical modeling of lithospheric extension with analysis of seismic moment release and earthquake b‐value in order to elucidate the mechanism for deep crustal seismicity and seismic swarms in the Main Ethiopian Rift (MER).

A New Concept of the Mechanism of Rock-Tectonic Bursts and Other Dynamic Phenomena in Conditions of Ore Deposits

open access: yesГорные науки и технологии, 2020
In mining technical literature, the prevailing idea is still that rockbursts in open pits and underground mines are caused by gravitational forces produced by the overburden rock mass, put forward in the 20th century by S.G. Avershin and I.M.

Moment tensor analysis of transversely isotropic shale based on the discrete element method

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mining Science and Technology, 2017
In this study, the moment tensor of transversely isotropic shale was analyzed using a discrete element method-acoustic emission model (DEM-AE model). Firstly, the failure modes of the shale obtained from the acoustic emission (AE) events and physical ...

Matched filtering for the seismic moment tensor

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 1976
By a process of matched filtering it is possible to deconvolve a small number of acceleration or strain records for the moment rate tensor of a seismic source. Theoretically, one horizontal accelerometer (or strain meter) or two vertical accelerometers is sufficient. Practically, five to ten records can be shown to suffice.

Seismic moment tensor event screening

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2020
SUMMARY Event screening is an explosion monitoring practice that aims to identify an event as an explosion (‘screened in’) or not (‘screened out’). Confidence in event screening can be increased if multiple independent approaches are used.

Theoretical Maximum and Cumulative Seismic Moment Relationships Confirm that Injection Volume Controls the Occurrence Rate, But Not the Magnitude, of Induced Earthquakes

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Classical relationships between cumulative and maximum seismic moment, based on the Gutenberg‐Richter law, shows a non‐physical anomaly for low b‐values. We here derive new relationships, including a low and a high b‐value approximation.

Investigating Factors Influencing Moment Tensor Inversion of Induced Seismicity in Virtual IoT

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
The Internet of Things (IoT) for seismicity in underground mine consists of a combination of sensor network hardware and software, which allows the collection of seismic data and data processing for basic event parameters.
