Measuring county resilience after the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake [PDF]
International Journal of Disaster Risk Science, 2015 Abstract. The catastrophic earthquake in 2008 has caused serious damage to Wenchuan County and the surrounding area in China. In recent years, great attention has been paid to the resilience of the affected area. This study applied a new framework, the Resilience Inference Measurement (RIM) model, to quantify and validate the community resilience of ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.Abstract The Yingxiu–Beichuan Fault Zone (YBFZ), located in the Longmen Shan Thrust Belt (LSTB) on the eastern Tibetan Plateau, is highly seismically active. However, direct evidence of large earthquakes at depth is scarce. Here, we present rock magnetic, microstructural, and geochemical analyses of four fault zones from the Wenchuan Earthquake Fault ...

Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, Volume 38, Issue 8, April 2026.ABSTRACT We propose a dynamic optimization framework for Medical Oxygen Supply Chains (MOSCs) operating under concurrent disasters. The framework aims to minimize both the total response and transportation time, as well as the total operational cost. These goals are subject to constraints involving evacuation, capacity, maintenance, and inventory.

Stick-slip nucleation triggering of Wenchuan earthquake
Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2021 The MS8.0 Wenchuan earthquake occurred on May 12th, 2008 on the steeply reverse fault of the Longmen Shan fault zone, Western China. Catastrophic failure and rupture occurred along the listric sliding surface. Several numerical simulations have been performed to reconfigure the dynamic processes of this strong earthquake.
