Aftershocks and Omori's law in a modified Carlson-Langer model with nonlinear viscoelasticity.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A modified Carlson-Langer model for earthquakes is proposed, which includes nonlinear viscoelasticity. Several aftershocks are generated after the main shock owing to the damping of the additional viscoelastic force. Both the Gutenberg-Richter law and Omori's law are reproduced in a numerical simulation of the modified Carlson-Langer model on a critical percolation cluster of a square lattice.

Comment on "Diffusion of epicenters of earthquake aftershocks, Omori's law, and generalized continuous-time random walk models".
Modeling of earthquake sequences using an epidemic-type aftershock sequence model by Phys. Rev. E 66, 061104 (2002)] has led these authors to conclude that previous analyses of apparent earthquake diffusions were flawed. We show here that diffusion analyses based on spatiotemporal correlation measures for earthquake populations are an appropriate method for capturing the space-time coupling pre...
متن کاملPower-law rheology controls aftershock triggering and decay
The occurrence of aftershocks is a signature of physical systems exhibiting relaxation phenomena. They are observed in various natural or experimental systems and usually obey several non-trivial empirical laws. Here we consider a cellular automaton realization of a nonlinear viscoelastic slider-block model in order to infer the physical mechanisms of triggering responsible for the occurrence o...
متن کاملArtifactual log - periodicity in finite size data : Relevance for earthquake aftershocks
The recently proposed discrete scale invariance and its associated log-periodicity are an elaboration of the concept of scale invariance in which the system is scale invariant only under powers of specific values of the magnification factor. We report on the discovery of a novel mechanism for such log-periodicity relying solely on the manipulation of data. This " synthetic " scenario for log-pe...
متن کاملDesign of a Model Reference Adaptive Controller Using Modified MIT Rule for a Second Order System
Sometimes conventional feedback controllers may not perform well online because of the variation in process dynamics due to nonlinear actuators, changes in environmental conditions and variation in the character of the disturbances. To overcome the above problem, this paper deals with the designing of a controller for a second order system with Model Reference Adaptive Control (MRAC) scheme usi...
متن کاملSub-critical and Super-critical Regimes in Epidemic Models of Earthquake Aftershocks
We present an analytical solution and numerical tests of the epidemic-type aftershock (ETAS) model for aftershocks, which describes foreshocks, aftershocks and mainshocks on the same footing. In this model, each earthquake of magnitude m triggers aftershocks with a rate proportional to 10. The occurrence rate of aftershocks triggered by a single mainshock decreases with the time from the mainsh...
