2D multi-channel seismic profiles and a 3D survey were utilised together with potential field available well data to study the late Mesozoic-Cenozoic tectono-stratigraphic evolution of northern Lofoten-Vesterålen margin, offshore Norway. The analysis resulted in an updated structural stratigraphic framework, new better refined elements. Distinct along-margin basin segmentation is evident impose...

Abstract The Dinaric–Hellenic mountain belt bends where two fault systems transect the orogen: (1) dextral Shkoder-Peja Transfer Zone (SPTZ), active sometime between Late Cretaceous and middle Eocene; (2) Normal Fault (SPNF), which accommodated NW–SE directed orogen-parallel extension. SPTZ dextrally offsets nappes by ~ 75 km, a displacement attributed to reactivation of an Early Mesozoic rift ...

Abstract Lobate scarps (thrust faults) in the lunar south polar region (90°–60°S) provide important insights into tectonic history, seismicity, and seismic hazard potential of landing sites. In this study, we discovered 75 new lobate >500 segments, exhibiting latitudinal variation geometry movement directions. Formation ages 141 prominent scarp segments show fault growth rates directions, de...

At 00:43 UTC on 27 July 2022, a 15-km deep major earthquake with magnitude (M w ) 7.0 struck Northwestern Luzon, Philippines. The strongest ground shaking felt was at PHIVOLCS Earthquake Intensity Scale (PEIS) VII (destructive), equivalent to Modified Mercalli (MMI) VII, in Abra and along the coastal areas of Ilocos Sur. More than thousand landslides, rockfalls tension cracks were mapped, near ...

Conventional probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) only considers mainshock events and uses a time-independent earthquake rupture forecast to describe the occurrence of mainshocks. This approach neglects long-term time-dependency mainshocks on specific fault segments, interaction adjacent faults, spatial temporal clustering aftershocks. study integrates recently proposed advanced fault-b...

A devasting Mw7.2 earthquake struck southern Haiti on 14 August 2021, leading to over 2000 casualties and severe structural failures. This earthquake, which ruptured ~70 km west of the 2010 Mw7.0 event, offers a rare opportunity probe mechanical properties Haiti. study investigates kinematic multi-fault coseismic rupture process by jointly analyzing teleseismic interferometric synthetic apertur...

Fault detection continues to be a relevant and ongoing topic in multiterminal High Voltage Direct Current (MT-HVDC) grid protection. In MT-HVDC grids, however, high DC-fault currents result from failure of complex protective threshold traditional protection schemes, making Source Converter (VSC) vulnerable such potent transient currents. this innovative single-ended DC scheme, multiple time win...

SUMMARY The ?M6 1799 Bouin earthquake is considered as one of the largest earthquakes to have struck Western France. However, seismogenic source potentially responsible for this event remain marginally documented. We present results from a focused offshore-onshore multidisciplinary survey in its meizoseismal area order identify fault segments that ruptured during earthquake. Based on macroseism...
