Investigating the Deformation and Failure Mechanism of a Submarine Tunnel with Flexible Joints Subjected to Strike-Slip Faults

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Knowledge from historical earthquake events indicates that a submarine tunnel crossing active strike-slip faults is prone to be damaged in an earthquake. Previous studies have demonstrated that the flexible joints are an effective measure for a submarine

Tectonic Implication of the 5th March 2005, Doublet Earthquake in Ilan, Taiwan

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2016
The 5th March 2005 earthquake doublet focal mechanism was determined as strike-slip faulting from Harvard and BATS moment tensor inversion. However, based on first motion polarities, the first shock has a normal focal mechanism (Wu et al. 2008a).

Distribution of strike‐slip faults on Europa [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2000
Study of four different regions on Europa imaged by the Galileo spacecraft during its first 15 orbits has revealed 117 strike‐slip faults. Europa appears to form preferentially right‐lateral faults in the southern hemisphere and left‐lateral faults in the northern hemisphere.

The El Tocuyo, Venezuela, earthquake of 3 August, 1950: Focal parameters and tectonic implications [PDF]

Geofísica Internacional, 2001
The El Tocuyo earthquake of 1950 event was associated with the Boconó fault system. The Ms magnitude was 6.3; the focal depth was ( from pP – P and sP – P) 18 ± 1 Km.

Complex microseismic activity and depth-dependent stress field changes in Wakayama, southwestern Japan

Earth, Planets and Space, 2018
We examined the spatial relationship between seismicity and upper crustal structure in the Wakayama region, northwestern Kii Peninsula, Japan, by investigating microearthquake focal mechanisms and the local stress field.

Volcano instability induced by strike-slip faulting

Bulletin of Volcanology, 2000
Analogue sand cone experiments were conducted to study instability generated on volcanic cones by basal strike-slip movement. The results of the analogue models demonstrate that edifice instability may be generated when strike-slip faults underlying a volcano move as a result of tectonic adjustment.
