Coseismic damage in fault zones contributes to the short‐and long‐term behavior of a fault
and provides a valuable indication of the parameters that control seismic ruptures. This …

Geophysical observations show a dramatic drop of seismic wave speeds in the shallow off-
fault medium following earthquake ruptures. Seismic ruptures generate, or reactivate …

Permeability is a fundamental index that is closely related to rock damage in geotechnical
engineering. In this study, dynamic triaxial compression tests were performed using a …

Studies on the mechanical behaviour of rocks, including volcanic rocks, usually seek for
unaltered and simple material: rocks without macroscopic defects. However, volcanic rocks …

High strain rate loading causes pervasive dynamic microfracturing in crystalline materials,
with dynamic pulverization being the extreme end‐member. Hydraulic properties …

Deformation and failure of rocks are important for a better understanding of many crustal
geological phenomena such as faulting and compaction. In carbonate rocks among others …

Adequate representations of brittle deformation (fracturing and faulting) are essential
ingredients of long‐term tectonic simulations. Such models commonly rely on Mohr …

The physical properties and mechanical behavior of andesite are of interest in the context of
geothermal reservoir, CO2 sequestration and for several natural processes. The effects of …

Earthquakes nucleate and propagate in rocks, and they sometimes leave behind a fossil
record of their effect. Two types of fault zone damage-products, pseudotachylyte and …

The permeability evolution of rock is essential in geotechnical engineering, which is related
to seepage. A permeability evolution model, which is based on the wing crack propagation …
