Main shocks and evolution of complex earthquake networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dynamical evolution of earthquake network is studied. Through the analysis of the real data taken from California and Japan, it is found that the values of the clustering coefficient exhibit a specific behavior around the moment of a main shock: the coefficient remains stationary before a main shock, suddenly jumps up at the main shock, and then slowly decreases to become stationary again. Thus, the network approach to seismicity dynamically characterizes main shocks in a peculiar manner.

Dynamical evolution of clustering in complex network of earthquakes
The network approach plays a distinguished role in contemporary science of complex systems/phenomena. Such an approach has been introduced into seismology in a recent work [S. Abe and N. Suzuki, Europhys. Lett. 65, 581 (2004)]. Here, we discuss the dynamical property of the earthquake network constructed in California and report the discovery that the values of the clustering coefficient remain...
متن کاملComplex earthquake networks: hierarchical organization and assortative mixing.
To characterize the dynamical features of seismicity as a complex phenomenon, the seismic data are mapped to a growing random graph, which is a small-world scale-free network. Here, hierarchical and mixing properties of such a network are studied. The clustering coefficient is found to exhibit asymptotic power-law decay with respect to connectivity, showing hierarchical organization. This struc...
متن کاملOptimum Parameters for Tuned Mass Damper Using Shuffled Complex Evolution (SCE) Algorithm
This study is investigated the optimum parameters for a tuned mass damper (TMD) under the seismic excitation. Shuffled complex evolution (SCE) is a meta-heuristic optimization method which is used to find the optimum damping and tuning frequency ratio for a TMD. The efficiency of the TMD is evaluated by decreasing the structural displacement dynamic magnification factor (DDMF) and acceleration ...
متن کاملStudy on Simulation of Foreshock Activity Properties before Strong Earthquake Using Heterogeneous Cellular Automata Models
Three different degrees of heterogeneous fault models are simulated by using 2-D random dynamic cellular automata models for analyzing macroscopic behaviors of seismic activity evolution influenced by heterogeneity of fault structures. The results show that the heterogeneities of fault structures can influence evolution properties of the foreshock activity and rupture process, such as the media...
