Abstract Knowledge of the present-day crustal in-situ stress field is a key for the
understanding of geodynamic processes such as global plate tectonics and earthquakes. It …

Hydraulic fracturing (HF) is a technique that is used for extracting petroleum resources from
impermeable host rocks. In this process, fluid injected under high pressure causes fractures …

The parametric catalogue of Italian earthquakes CPTI15 (Catalogo Parametrico dei
Terremoti Italiani) represents the latest of a 45-years-long tradition of earthquake catalogues …

Immediately after a large earthquake, the main question asked by the public and decision-
makers is whether it was the mainshock or a foreshock to an even stronger event yet to …

龙门山断裂带可分为南段, 中段和北段, 2008 年汶川M8. 0 级地震发生在该断裂带中-北段.
龙门山断裂带南段是否存在发生强震的危险性倍受关注. 利用1977-2012 年四川区域地震台网 …

To probe the difference between static-driven and dynamically triggered rockbursts, three
types (static-driven rockburst, SDR; pulse-disturbance rockburst, PUDR; period-disturbance …

Laboratory experiments have shown that the b value in the size distribution of acoustic
emission events decreases linearly with differential stress. There have been a number of …

During the past decades, significant progress has been made in the development of induced
seismicity monitoring for related human activities. Hydraulic fracturing and induced …

Wastewater disposal in the central US is likely responsible for an unprecedented surge in
earthquake activity. Much of this activity is thought to be driven by induced pore pressure …

We develop new empirical scaling laws for rupture width W⁠, rupture length L⁠, rupture
area A⁠, and average slip D⁠, based on a large database of rupture models. The database …
