Post-earthquake assessment of moderately damaged reinforced concrete plastic hinges
, 2020 Modern reinforced concrete buildings are often designed to dissipate energy during strong earthquakes by permitting the controlled formation of plastic hinges. Plastic hinges require assessment of residual capacity in post-earthquake situations. However,

Foreshock properties illuminate nucleation processes of slow and fast laboratory earthquakes
Nature Communications, 2023 Understanding the connection between seismic activity and the earthquake nucleation process is a fundamental goal in earthquake seismology with important implications for earthquake early warning systems and forecasting.

Characteristics of Slow Slip Event in March 2020 Revealed From Borehole and DONET Observatories
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 We have detected an event of pore pressure change (hereafter, we refer it to “pore pressure event”) from borehole stations in real time in March 2020, owing to the network developed by connecting three borehole stations to the Dense Oceanfloor Network ...

Applying the Coulomb Failure Function with an optimally oriented plane to the 2008 Mw 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake triggering [PDF]
, 2010 The Coulomb failure function (CFF) quantitatively describes static stress changes in secondary faults near the source fault of an earthquake. CFF can be employed to monitor how static stress transfers and then shed some light on the probability of ...

A comparison of the governance landscape of earthquake risk reduction in Nepal and the Indian State of Bihar [PDF]
, 2016 On 25 April 2015, a Mw 7.8 earthquake struck central Nepal, killing more than 8,700 people. An earthquake of this magnitude has long been anticipated in Nepal and the neighbouring northern Indian state of Bihar, which straddle the active Himalayan ...
