On the statistical mechanics of distributed seismicity
S U M M A R Y I n order to understand the underlying physics of distributed seismicity better we have considered a 2-D array of slider blocks connected by springs and interacting via static friction with a surface. There is no driving plate in this model. The time evolution of the system is found from numerical simulations in a cellular automata formulation. Energy is conserved and is the singl...
متن کاملStatistical Physics Approach to Understanding the Multiscale Dynamics of Earthquake Fault Systems
[1] Earthquakes and the faults upon which they occur interact over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. In addition, many aspects of regional seismicity appear to be stochastic both in space and time. However, within this complexity, there is considerable self-organization. We argue that the occurrence of earthquakes is a problem that can be attacked using the fundamentals of statistica...
متن کاملNetwork of recurrent events for the Olami-Feder-Christensen model.
We numerically study the dynamics of a discrete spring-block model introduced by Olami, Feder, and Christensen (OFC) to mimic earthquakes and investigate to what extent this simple model is able to reproduce the observed spatiotemporal clustering of seismicity. Following a recently proposed method to characterize such clustering by networks of recurrent events [J. Davidsen, P. Grassberger, and ...
متن کاملStatistical Evaluation of Induced Seismicity at the Karkheh Dam, Iran
Karkheh Dam is the largest dam in Iran with a capacity of about 7.4×109 cubic meters and height of 127 meters. Since the first impoundment, increasing in seismic activity in the dam area has been observed that indicates the possible occurrence of reservoir-induced seismicity (RIS).In the present work, a preliminary evaluation is conducted firstly in order to investigate these observations. Base...
متن کاملStatistical Features of Earthquake Temporal Occurrence
The physics of an earthquake is a subject with many unknowns. It is true that we have a good understanding of the propagation of seismic waves through the Earth and that given a large set of seismographic records we are able to reconstruct a posteriori the history of the fault rupture (the origin of the waves). However, when we consider the physical processes which lead to the initiation of a r...
