In the context of rift basin formation, structural inheritance describes the influence of pre-
existing structures on new rift-related structures, including faults. Pre-existing structures in …

Abstract We present the Malawi Active Fault Database (MAFD), an open‐access (https://doi.
org/10.5281/zenodo. 5507190) geospatial database of 113 fault traces in Malawi and …

Fluids are pervasive in the Earth's crust and saturate fractures and faults. The combination of
fluids and gouge layers develo** along faults can generate fluids of different viscosities …

We investigate the geomechanical behavior of hydraulic-fracturing-induced microseismicity.
Microseismic events are commonly used to discern stimulation patterns and hydraulic …

Induced seismicity represents a negative drawback during subsurface exploitation for
geothermal energy production. Understanding the triggering mechanisms of induced …

Crustal extension is commonly thought to be accommodated by faults that strike orthogonal
and obliquely to the regional trend of the minimum compressive stress (σ3). Activation of …

Paleoseismic evidence from the late‐interseismic Alpine Fault suggests key section
boundaries conditionally inhibit rupture. We utilize a year of data from a two‐part …

In underground near-fault mining, fault reactivation is related to many kinds of mine disasters
such as mine water inrush, mine earthquakes, gas outburst, rock burst, roof collapse. pre …

We investigate the hydraulic fracturing process by analysis of the associated
microseismicity. In part 1, we recognized double-couple and hybrid microseismic events and …

Faults in the brittle crust constitute preexisting weakness zones that can be reactivated
depending on their friction, orientation within the local stress field, and stress field …
