Back‐propagating rupture: Nature, excitation, and implications
Recent observations show that certain rupture phase can propagate backward relative to the
earlier one during a single earthquake event. Such back‐propagating rupture (BPR) was not …

Different probabilistic models for earthquake occurrences along the North and East Anatolian fault zones
Turkey is bounded by the two of the most active fault zones: the North Anatolian Fault Zone
(NAFZ) and the East Anatolian Fault Zone (EAFZ). Therefore, Turkey has experienced …
