Bimodal seismicity in the Himalaya controlled by fault friction and geometry

Nature Communications, 2018
There is increasing evidence that the Himalayan seismicity can be bimodal: blind earthquakes (up to Mw ~ 7.8) tend to cluster in the downdip part of the seismogenic zone, whereas infrequent great earthquakes (Mw 8+) propagate up to the Himalayan frontal ...

Network of recurrent events for the Olami-Feder-Christensen model

, 2008
We numerically study the dynamics of a discrete spring-block model introduced by Olami, Feder and Christensen (OFC) to mimic earthquakes and investigate to which extent this simple model is able to reproduce the observed spatiotemporal clustering of ...

Theory of Earthquake Recurrence Times [PDF]

, 2006
The statistics of recurrence times in broad areas have been reported to obey universal scaling laws, both for single homogeneous regions (Corral, 2003) and when averaged over multiple regions (Bak et al.,2002).

Synthetic Electrocardiogram Spectrogram Generation Using Generative Adversarial Network‐Based Models: A Comparative Study

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Cardiovascular diseases are leading death causes; electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis is slow, motivating machine learning and deep learning. This study compares deep convolutional generative adversarial network, conditional GAN, and Wasserstein GAN with gradient penalty (WGAN‐GP) for synthetic ECG spectrograms; Fréchet Inception Distance (FID) and ...

Investigation of the Relationship of Earthquakes and Underground Waste Disposal in The El Dorado Area, Arkansas [PDF]

, 1991
From December, 1983 to September, 1989 twelve small earthquakes were recorded for the El Dorado, Arkansas area. Magnitudes of these earthquakes were well below damaging levels.

Indonesian inquiry: A narrative of biocultural teaching on Sulawesi Utara

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Using phenomenology, narrative inquiry and autoethnographic approaches, this study analyses a program of faculty development conducted alongside the delivery of an international field school. Through this study, we explore the value and benefits of inter‐cultural field programming and how these might serve to complement or to redress ...

Hydrologically-driven crustal stresses and seismicity in the New Madrid Seismic Zone

Nature Communications, 2017
The degree to which short-term non-tectonic processes, either natural and anthropogenic, influence the occurrence of earthquakes in active tectonic settings or ‘stable’ plate interiors, remains a subject of debate.

Sequencing Finance for Climate Resilience: Instruments, Institutions and Hong Kong's Role in Mobilising Private Capital in Southeast Asia

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates innovative financing strategies to mobilise private capital for climate adaptation, emphasising Hong Kong's role in advancing efforts across Southeast Asia. Using expert interviews and case studies, it addresses two key questions: which financial instruments can strengthen public–private collaboration, and what best ...

Numerical Simulation on Damage and Failure Mechanism of Rock under Combined Multiple Strain Rates

Shock and Vibration, 2018
During underground hard-rock mining, the drilling and blasting method currently remains the most economical excavation method, and the rock may experience a multistrain-rate spectrum under quasi-static, dynamic, and rheological loading conditions and ...

Numerical Shear Tests on the Scale Effect of Rock Joints under CNL and CND Conditions

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020
The scale effect of rock joint shear behavior is an important subject in the field of rock mechanics. There is yet a lack of consensus regarding whether the shear strength of rock joints increases, decreases, or remains unchanged as the joint size ...
