How fault geometry controls the rupture propagation and segmentation of a strike-slip event is an open question. Deciphering the relationship between the geometric fault complexity …
The speed at which an earthquake rupture propagates affects its energy balance and ground shaking impact. Dynamic models of supershear earthquakes, which are faster than …
Abstract The 4 July 2019 Mw6. 4 and subsequent 6 July 2019 Mw7. 1 Ridgecrest sequence earthquakes (CA, USA) ruptured orthogonal fault planes in a low slip rate (1 mm/year) …
We perform the finite‐extent fault inversion of the three main events of the 2016 Central Italy seismic sequence using near‐source strong motion records. We demonstrate that both …
Earthquakes are supershear when their rupture speed is faster than that of the seismic shear waves produced. These events are rare, but they can be highly destructive owing to the …
Faults are complex structures that substantially influence the mechanical behavior and hydraulic connectivity of rock formations. Therefore, studying faults is important for a variety …
The 2019 Ridgecrest earthquake sequence culminated in the largest seismic event in California since the 1999 M w 7.1 Hector Mine earthquake. Here, we combine geodetic and …
As faults grow over time and become more “mature,” some of their geometrical and mechanical properties evolve, and these changes modify earthquake behavior. It is thus of …
