Scientists used supercomputer simulation to reveal the underlying mechanism by which the irregular fault geometry, characterized by multisegments, controlled the variation of the fault slip and ...
Three-dimensional fault models are generally more accurate than two-dimensional line models at sending ground shaking alerts to the correct areas as part of an earthquake early warning system, ...
On a sunny morning in September 1985, a massive earthquake killed more than 9,000 people in Mexico City, even though the epicenter of the earthquake was some 200 miles away. The worst damage happened ...
CORVALLIS, Ore. — Researchers as Oregon State University have developed a new 3D model that allows them to take a closer look at what’s happening beneath the earth’s surface along the Cascadia ...
A new laboratory earthquake model connects real contact area with earthquake dynamics, paving the way for improved prediction and early warning systems. Scientists have created a new laboratory model ...
Most introductory geology professors teach students about earthquakes by assigning readings and showing diagrams of tectonic plates and fault lines to the class. But Paul Low is not most instructors. ...
Located on the island of Sicily, in Italy, Mount Etna is one of the world's most active volcanoes. Documentation of its many ...
With the popularity of 3D-printed homes rising, University of Bristol scientists are using the UK’s largest shaking table to test their durability against earthquakes. As a rapidly emerging technology ...
On New Year's Day 2024, a massive 7.5-magnitude earthquake struck the Noto Peninsula in north central Japan, resulting in extensive damage in the region caused by uplift, when the land rises due to ...
