Cassini Ring Seismology as a Probe of Saturn’s Interior. I. Rigid Rotation [PDF]

Astrophysical Journal, 2018
Seismology of the gas giants holds the potential to resolve long-standing questions about their internal structure and rotation state. We construct a family of Saturn interior models constrained by the gravity field and compute their adiabatic mode ...

Record‐Wise Disaggregated Seismic Fragilities for Interconnected Systems

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seismic risk assessment studies typically rely on fragility functions/curves to characterize the susceptibility of an asset or a class of assets to damage. These curves are essentially a summarization of responses evaluated on the basis of ground motions with record characteristics and intensities that may or may not be tied to a specific site

Seismic Design of Concrete Dams: An Integrated Risk‐Informed Performance‐Based (RIPB) Framework

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper advances the integration of risk‐informed principles into the seismic design of dams—a domain long guided by standards‐based, largely deterministic approaches. While performance‐based earthquake engineering is well established for buildings and bridges, its systematic adoption in dam engineering remains limited. We first address two

A Socio-Seismology Experiment in Haiti

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Earthquake risk reduction approaches classically apply a top-down model where scientific information is processed to deliver risk mitigation measures and policies understandable by all, while shielding end-users from the initial, possibly complex ...

Influence of crustal layering and thickness on co-seismic effects of Wenchuan earthquake

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2011
Using the PSGRN/PSCMP software and the fault model offered by USGS and on the basis of finite rectangular dislocation theory and the local layered wave velocity structures of the crust-upper-mantle, the influences of crustal layering and thickness on co ...

Appraisal of seismic noise scenario at national seismological network of India in COVID-19 lockdown situation

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2020
We evaluated seismic background noise at national network in India using PSD, Fourier spectra, Spectrogram, and HVSR approach, before and during the nationwide lockdown declared due to COVID-19 pandemic.

Relation of Bulk‐to‐Shear Loss Factors in Viscoelastic Auxetic Metamaterials

physica status solidi (b), EarlyView.
This article examines the dynamic behavior of isotropic auxetic viscoelastic materials, highlighting how negative Poisson's ratios affect energy dissipation, damping, and the interplay between bulk and shear moduli. By extending established viscoelastic theories to the auxetic range, it defines bound limits and underscores how dynamic Poisson's ratio ...

Analysis of Stress Variation Characteristics of Jiangling Depression, Hubei, China, Based on Jingzhou Well Water Level and GNSS Data

Geofluids
There have been many M≥3.0 earthquakes in and around the Jiangling Depression in history, and the stress variation can directly affect the preparation of surrounding earthquakes. This paper innovatively uses the variation characteristics of Jingzhou well

Pickin' up good vibrations: a systematic review of footfall detection and analysis in the realm of wildlife surveying

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Exploration of new wildlife surveying methodologies that leverage advances in sensor technology and machine learning has led to tentative research into the application of seismology techniques. This, most commonly, involves the deployment of a footfall trap – a seismic sensor and data logger customised for wildlife footfall.

Magnetohydrodynamic Seismology of Quiet Solar Active Regions [PDF]

Astrophysical Journal, 2019
The ubiquity of recently discovered low-amplitude decayless kink oscillations of plasma loops allows for the seismological probing of the corona on a regular basis. In particular, in contrast to traditionally applied seismology that is based on the large-
