We present an approach to study the rock failure mechanisms due to fracture growth or activation. Our approach includes a series of numerical geomechanic simulations of an incremental rock failure (fracture growth) accounting for elastic wavefield ...

Mathematical modeling of wave fields in layered media with additional stresses
We consider the model of a vertically inhomogeneous medium, when one or more layers are under more stress. We analyzed the results of research of influence of hydrostatic pressure act-ing in one of the layers of horizontally-layered structure of the wave

Is the seismic moment tensor ambiguous at a material interface? [PDF]
S U M M A R Y The moment tensors are unique and describe the body force equivalents of rupture processes in any medium including faulting at a material interface, defined as the contact of two media with non-zero velocity or density contrasts. From a practical point of view, however, the moment tensor inversion of sources near or at a material ...

Seismic Moment Tensor Report for the 06 Aug 2007, M3.9 Seismic Event in Central Utah [PDF]
We have performed a complete moment tensor analysis (Minson and Dreger, 2007) of the seismic event, which occurred on Monday August 6, 2007 at 08:48:40 UTC, 21 km from Mount Pleasant, Utah. The purpose of this report is to present our scientific results,

Seismic structure and earthquake focal mechanisms of the Hengill volcanic complex, S W Iceland [PDF]
Iceland provides a unique opportunity to study the processes that occur along mid- ocean ridges. In 1991, thirty temporary seismic stations were installed at the Hengill volcanic complex to record high-quality digital data from local earthquakes.

Fast detection and characterization of seismic sources is crucial for decision-making and warning systems that monitor natural and induced seismicity. However, besides the laying out of ever denser monitoring networks of seismic instruments, the incorporation of new sensor technologies such as Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) further challenges our ...
