Fluid‐induced slip on a rate‐and‐state fault during co‐ and post‐injection: The interplay of fluid pressure diffusion and poroelastic stress

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Fault slip can occur ahead of the injection pressure front due to poroelastic stress. Our model captures the interaction of pressure, stress, and friction, providing new insights into injection‐induced seismicity and post‐injection fault slip. Shut‐in operations can either mitigate or accelerate seismic events depending on fault conditions and ...

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

open access: yesGeofluids
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

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

open access: yesGeodesy 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 ...

Models of the macroseismic field earthquakes and their influence on seismic hazard assessment values for Central Asia

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2020
Seismic intensity assessment in points of a macroseismic scale plays an important role for researching the seismic history of areas characterized by active seismicity, as well as for construction (and updating) of seismic zoning maps in various scales ...

Surface Consistent Seismic Hazard Assessment in the Shillong Plateau, Northeast India: A Probabilistic Approach Using Multiple Source Models and a Logic Tree Framework

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We perform probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) in the Shillong Plateau by clubbing the up‐to‐date earthquake data and seismotectonic properties of the study area. Twenty‐one areal seismic sources are delineated based on the updated earthquake catalog, tectonic, and fault plane solutions.

Seismological aspects of intermediate and small-scale upper mantle structure : considerations on a global and regional scale [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Seismology can be defined as the mathematical and physical study of earthquakes. It is also the study of how the earth's vibrations, generated by earthquakes, can be used to make statements about the internal structure of the earth.

Observations of exotic inner core waves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The seismic structure of Earth’s inner core is highly complex, displaying strong anisotropy and further regional variations. However, few seismic waves are sensitive to the inner core and fundamental questions regarding the origin of the observed seismic

Research on the Critical Mechanical Criterion for Stick‐Slip Instability of Mining‐Affected Normal Faults Based on the Rate‐and‐State Friction Law

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Mining disturbance tends to trigger fault stick‐slip instability and induce disasters. This paper establishes a mechanical model to propose a critical criterion, which is verified to be reliable via FLAC3D, providing a theoretical basis for early warning of fault slip disasters.
