Source locations provide fundamental information on earthquakes and lay the foundation for
seismic monitoring at all scales. Seismic source location as a classical inverse problem has …

While deterministically predicting the time and location of earthquakes remains impossible,
earthquake forecasting models can provide estimates of the probabilities of earthquakes …

This essential reference for graduate students and researchers provides a unified treatment
of earthquakes and faulting as two aspects of brittle tectonics at different timescales. The …

We apply machine learning to data sets from shear laboratory experiments, with the goal of
identifying hidden signals that precede earthquakes. Here we show that by listening to the …

Immediately after a large earthquake, the main question asked by the public and decision-
makers is whether it was the mainshock or a foreshock to an even stronger event yet to …

Laboratory experiments have shown that the b value in the size distribution of acoustic
emission events decreases linearly with differential stress. There have been a number of …

The effect of high temperatures up to 800° C on the physical and mechanical characteristics
and fracturing behaviour of Beishan granite is experimentally studied with a combination of …

Wastewater disposal in the central US is likely responsible for an unprecedented surge in
earthquake activity. Much of this activity is thought to be driven by induced pore pressure …

Predicting failure in solids has broad applications including earthquake prediction which
remains an unattainable goal. However, recent machine learning work shows that laboratory …

Dynamic failure in the laboratory is commonly preceded by many foreshocks which
accompany premonitory aseismic slip. Aseismic slip is also thought to govern earthquake …
