Abstract Knowledge of the present-day crustal in-situ stress field is a key for the
understanding of geodynamic processes such as global plate tectonics and earthquakes. It …

Anthropogenic operations involving underground fluid extraction or injection can cause
unexpectedly large and even damaging earthquakes, despite operational and regulatory …

Subsurface geological formations can be utilized to safely store large-scale (TWh)
renewable energy in the form of green gases such as hydrogen. Successful implementation …

A key element in the assessment of seismic hazard is estimation of the maximum possible
earthquake magnitude, Mmax. A great deal of effort has been invested in develo** …

We implement a Coulomb rate‐and‐state approach to explore the nonlinear relation
between stressing rate and seismicity rate in the Groningen gas field. Coulomb stress rates …

Abstract Knowledge of the crustal stress state is important for the assessment of subsurface
stability. In particular, stress magnitudes are essential for the calibration of geomechanical …

We critically review the derivation of closed‐form analytical expressions for elastic
displacements, strains, and stresses inside a subsurface reservoir undergoing pore …

The distance to failure of the upper crustal rock in the prevalent stress field is of importance
to better understand fault reactivation by natural and induced processes as well as to plan …

Time-dependent rock deformation affects both natural processes happening on the
geological time scale and subsurface engineering operations. We perform a series of …

We address aseismic fault slip and the onset of seismicity resulting from depletion-induced
or injection-induced stresses in reservoirs with pre-existing vertical or inclined faults …
