15. Anomalous Earthquake Ruptures at Shallow Depths on Subduction Zone Megathrusts

Thorne Lay, +1 more
TL;DR: Lay and Bilek as discussed by the authors reviewed anomalous earthquakes at shallow depths on subduction zone megathrusts and found that both large and small thrust earthquakes in the upper 10 km of the seismogenic zone sometimes display unusual seismic energy release attributes, with low rupture velocity and/or low stress drop.

Computational modeling of deformation bands in granular media. II. Numerical simulations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use classical bifurcation theory combined with advanced constitutive modeling and state-of-the-art computation to capture the end members of the failures modes described in the companion paper, namely, simple shear, pure compaction, and pure dilation bands.

The effect of methane hydrate morphology and water saturation on seismic wave attenuation in sand under shallow sub-seafloor conditions

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of small strain (<10−6), seismic frequency (50-550 Hz), laboratory resonant column experiments on synthetic methane hydrate-bearing sands under excess-water seafloor conditions were conducted.

Characterizing an unstable mountain slope using shallow 2D and 3D seismic tomography

TL;DR: In this article, a 3D tomographic seismic refraction technique was applied to an unstable alpine mountain slope, a significant segment of which is moving at 0.01-0.02 m∕ year toward the adjacent valley floor.

Rock deformation models and fluid leak-off in hydraulic fracturing

TL;DR: In this article, a poro-elastoplastic pressure diffusion equation is proposed to model the fluid loss into reservoir rocks during hydraulic fracturing, which is appropriate for naturally fractured and tight gas reservoirs as well as for soft and poorly consolidated formations whose mechanical behaviour departs from simple elastic laws.
