We calculate well-resolved corner frequencies and radiated energies for a set of 96 earthquakes divided into two clusters located in the same tectonic setting but with different depths in northern Chile. Fifty-three shallow ...

Fracture mechanics theory and seismological observations suggest that slip-rate is constantly changing during earthquake rupture, including dramatic acceleration from static conditions to high velocity sliding followed by ...

The lack of clarity regarding slip distribution within heterogeneous rupture areas has a significant impact on characterizing the seismic source and the role of heterogeneities in determining ground motion. One approach ...

The time characteristics of the seismic source are usually neglected in tsunami modeling, due to the difference in the time scale of both processes. Nonetheless, there are just a few analytical studies that intended to ...

Abstract Background Cranial cruciate ligament rupture (CCLR) is one of the most important stifle injuries and a common cause of lameness in dogs. Our objective was to measure ...

We experimentally and analytically explore supershear ruptures that are excited at the onset of frictional motion within "bimaterial interfaces," frictional interfaces formed by contacting bodies having different elastic ...

There are only a few analytical 2+1D models for tsunami propagation, most of which treat tsunami generation from a static deformation field isolated from the kinematics of the rupture. This work examines the behavior of ...

We use seismic waves for a magnitude 6.3 intermediate-depth (160?km) earthquake in the Bucaramanga Nest, Colombia, to infer a complex rupture process with two distinct stages, characterized by different rupture velocities ...
