Large pre-historical earthquakes leave traces in the geological and geomorphological record, such as primary and secondary surface ruptures and mass movements, which are the only means to estimate their magnitudes. These environmental earthquake effects (

Paleoearthquakes of the Düzce fault (North Anatolian Fault Zone): Insights for large surface faulting earthquake recurrence [PDF]
Copyright 2008 by the American Geophysical Union.The 12 November 1999 Mw 7.1 earthquake ruptured the Düzce segment of the North Anatolian Fault Zone and produced a ∼40-km-long surface rupture.

The characteristics of earthquake surface ruptures, such as geometry, slip distribution, and coseismic deformation, contain important information about the earthquake rupture process, and so investigations and analyses of earthquake surface rupture have ...

Surface rupture in stochastic slip models [PDF]
SUMMARYAs an alternative to spectral methods, stochastic self-similar slip can be produced through a composite source model by placing a power-law scaling size-frequency distribution of circular slip dislocations on a fault surface. However these models do not accurately account for observed surface rupture behaviour.

Study on the rupture surface morphology and ultimate bearing capacity of a self-anchored test pile
The expression of the ultimate bearing capacity of the upper uplift pile and the lower compressive pile of a self-anchored test pile was obtained by studying their rupture surface morphology.
