Earthquake recurrence-time variations with and without fault-zone interactions
The macroscopic behaviour of a fault zone can be described by a classic Coulomb friction law and static^kinetic rheology. The critical failure stress leading to the activation of a single shear zone segment then depends on the normal stress acting on the future fault plane. It is known that the seismic cycle on a main fault patch can be modulated by surrounding fault activations, leading to int...
متن کاملNonlinear network dynamics on earthquake fault systems.
Earthquake faults occur in interacting networks having emergent space-time modes of behavior not displayed by isolated faults. Using simulations of the major faults in southern California, we find that the physics depends on the elastic interactions among the faults defined by network topology, as well as on the nonlinear physics of stress dissipation arising from friction on the faults. Our re...
متن کاملFault Type Estimation in Power Systems
This paper presents a novel approach for fault type estimation in power systems. The Fault type estimation is the first step to estimate instantaneous voltage, voltage sag magnitude and duration in a three-phase system at fault duration. The approach is based on time-domain state estimation where redundant measurements are available. The current based model allows a linear mapping between the m...
متن کاملM 7.0 earthquake recurrence on the San Andreas fault from a stress renewal model
[1] Forecasting M 7.0 San Andreas fault earthquakes requires an assessment of their expected frequency. I used a three-dimensional finite element model of California to calculate volumetric static stress drops from scenario M 7.0 earthquakes on three San Andreas fault sections. The ratio of stress drop to tectonic stressing rate derived from geodetic displacements yielded recovery times at poin...
متن کاملEarthquake recurrence on the south Hayward fault is most consistent with a time dependent, renewal process
[1] Elastic rebound and stress renewal are important components of earthquake forecasting because if large earthquakes can be shown to be periodic, then rupture probability is time dependent. While renewal models are used in formal forecasts, it has not been possible to exclude the alternate view that repeated large earthquakes can happen in rapid succession without requiring time for stress re...
