Anatomy of Strike Slip Fault Tsunami-genesis [PDF]

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 2021
Tsunami generation from earthquake induced seafloor deformations has long been recognized as a major hazard to coastal areas. Strike-slip faulting has generally been believed as insufficient for triggering large tsunamis, except through the generation of submarine landslides.

Variation of b-Value of Normal, Reverse and Strike-Slip Faulting Earthquakes with Focal Depth

open access: yesIraqi Geological Journal, 2023
A crucial factor in evaluating seismic activity, seismotectonics, and seismic hazard assessment is the distribution of earthquake sizes (b-value).

Tsunami Induced by the Strike‐Slip Fault of the 2018 Palu Earthquake (Mw = 7.5), Sulawesi Island, Indonesia

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2021
An unusual devastating tsunami occurred on September 28, 2018 after a strike‐slip faulting earthquake in Sulawesi, Indonesia. The induced tsunami struck Palu city with ∼4‐m flow depth.

Jurassic provenances and their transition mechanism of the Delingha Sag in the eastern segment of northern margin of the Qaidam Basin, North Tibet

open access: yesGeosystems and Geoenvironment, 2022
The Delingha Sag that witnessed the Indosinian, Yanshanian and Himalayan orogenies since the Mesozoic, is a potential petroliferous Meso-Cenozoic sag located in the eastern segment of the northern margin of the Qaidam Basin in North Tibet.

TSUNAMIS FROM STRIKE-SLIP AND NORMAL EARTHQUAKES AND ITS RELATION WITH THE PRODUCT OF DOMINANT PERIOD AND DURATION OF MORE THAN 50 SECONDS OF EARTHQUAKE P-WAVE [PDF]

open access: yesScience of Tsunami Hazards, 2021
It is widely known that earthquakes with strike-slip or normal-faulting crustal displacements have generated destructive tsunamis around the world. Many researchers have proposed that the main cause of such events was due to factors not associated with ...

Equal spacing of strike-slip faults [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1976
Summary Strike-slip fault systems on continents frequently occur in groups of several roughly equally-spaced faults. In this article these systems are simulated by a model. A physical mechanism is then presented, which appears to explain the phenomena shown by the model both qualitatively and to a certain extent quantitatively.

Three-dimensional approach to understanding the relationship between the Plio–Quaternary stress field and tectonic inversion in the Triassic Cuyo Basin, Argentina [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2015
The Cacheuta sub-basin of the Triassic Cuyo Basin is an example of rift basin inversion contemporaneous to the advance of the Andean thrust front, during the Plio–Quaternary. This basin is one of the most important sedimentary basins in
