AbstractThe article presents the results of studying the source of the 2015 Kenekesir earthquake and its aftershock sequence. The earthquake occurred in the Archman–Nokhur tectonic node zone, where the northwest orientation of the Central Kopet Dag faults changes to the northeast orientation of the Western Kopet Dag faults. The actual rupture plane...

Abstract—In this work, a case study on the Dujiashan Tunnel in the Western China was conducted in order to get insight into the damage mechanisms of such soft rock tunnels in the strong earthquake zones. In particular, based on the engineering background, the cracking characteristics, on-site monitoring data, influencing factors, and damage causes ...

The April 25, 2015 Mw 7.9 Gorkha earthquake in Nepal was characterized by a peak slip of several meters and persisting aftershocks. We report here that, in addition, a dense seismic swarm initiated abruptly in August 2017 at the western edge of the afterslip region, below the high Himalchuli-Manaslu range culminating at 8156 m, a region seismically...

The effect of aftershocks on the fragility of single-story masonry structures is investigated using probabilistic seismic demand analysis Finite element models of an unreinforced masonry (URM) structure and a confined masonry (CM) structure are established and their seismic response characteristics when subjected to mainshock, aftershock, and the m...

遠地地震によって誘発される地震活動の特徴を解明 --地震ビッグデータ解析を通じて--. 京都大学プレスリリース. 2021-05-06. / Earthquake triggering by seismic waves has been recognized as a phenomenon for nearly 30 years. However, our ability to study dynamic triggering has been limited by our ability to capture the triggering stresses accurately and record the resultant earthquakes. Here we use full w...

Numerous landslide dams have been induced in recent years as a result of frequent earthquakes and extreme climate hazards. Landslide dams present serious threats to lives and properties downstream due to potentially breaching floods from the impounded lakes. To investigate the factors influencing the stability of landslide dams, a large database ha...

Local earthquake data was used to determine a three-dimensional (3D) seismic attenuation structure around the aftershock source region of the 2018 Lombok earthquake in Indonesia. The aftershocks were recorded by 13 seismic stations from August 4 to September 9, 2018. The selected data consist of 6,281 P-wave t∗ values from 914 events, which had goo...

AbstractData from a dense seismic network, long-term observations, and modern methods for locating the aftershock hypocenters of the Chuy earthquake in 2003 were used to compile a spatial volumetric seismic portrait of seismically activated faults. The results revealed a cup-shaped structure of the aftershock process with a maximum focal depth of ~...

AbstractThis paper presents the results of analysis of the spatial distribution of repeated shocks. Data from the world earthquake catalog of USGS/NEIC from 1973 to 2014 were used. Short time intervals, no more than 10 hours after the main shock, and distances from the epicenter of the main shock, no more than 5°, were considered. The dependence of...

Using a multi-component lattice Boltzmann (LB) model, we perform fluid kinetic simulations of confined and concentrated emulsions. The system presents the phenomenology of soft-glassy materials, including a Herschel-Bulkley rheology, yield stress, ageing and long relaxation time scales. Shearing the emulsion in a Couette cell below the yield stress...
