Abstract:
Abstract The 2023 Turkey earthquake sequence involved unexpected ruptures across numerous fault segments. We present 3D dynamic rupture simulations to illuminate the complex dynamics of the earthquake doublet. Our models are constrained by observations available within days of the sequence and deliver timely, mechanically consistent explanations of the unforeseen rupture paths, diverse rupture speeds, multiple slip episodes, heterogeneous fault offsets, locally strong shaking, and fault system interactions. Our simulations link both earthquakes, matching geodetic and seismic observations and reconciling regional seismotectonics, rupture dynamics, and ground motions of a fault system represented by 10 curved dipping segments and embedded in a heterogeneous stress field. The Mw 7.8 earthquake features delayed backward branching from a steeply branching splay fault, not requiring supershear speeds. The asymmetrical dynamics of the distinct, bilateral Mw 7.7 earthquake are explained by heterogeneous fault strength, prestress orientation, fracture energy, and static stress changes from the previous earthquake. Our models explain the northward deviation of its eastern rupture and the minimal slip observed on the Sürgü fault. 3D dynamic rupture scenarios can elucidate unexpected observations shortly after major earthquakes, providing timely insights for data-driven analysis and hazard assessment toward a comprehensive, physically consistent understanding of the mechanics of multifault systems.

Abstract:
A model of coupled vehicle-bridge system excited by earthquake and irregular track is established for studying train running performance on high-speed bridge during earthquake, by the methods of bridge structure dynamics and vehicle dynamics. The results indicate that under Qian’an earthquake waves vehicle dynamical responses hardly vary with the increasing-height pier, but vehicle dynamical responses increase evidently while the height of pier is 18m, which the natural vibration frequency is approaching to dominant frequency of earthquake waves. Dynamic responses are linearly increasing with earthquake wave strength. Dynamic response of vehicles including lateral car body accelerations and every safety evaluation index all increase with train speed, so the influences of train speed must be taken into account in evaluating running safety of vehicles on bridge during earthquakes, but lateral displacement of bridge is varying irregularly. Dynamic responses and lateral displacement of bridge reduce under the higher dominant frequency of earthquake wave. Derailment coefficient, later wheel-rail force and lateral vehicle acceleration become small with increasing damping ratio. Vertical vehicle acceleration and reduction rate of wheel load are hardly varying with damping ratio.

Abstract:
An earthquake of magnitude 5.6 mb (6.6 ML) hit western Nepal (Doti region) in the wee hours of wednesday morning local time (2:12 AM, 2022.11.08) killing at least six people. Gutenberg-Richter b-value of earthquake distribution and correlation fractal dimension (D2) are estimated for 493 earthquakes with magnitude of completeness 3.6 prior to this earthquake. We consider earthquakes in western Nepal Himalaya and adjoining region (80.0–83.5°E and 27.3–30.5°N) for the period of 1964 to 2022 for the analysis. The b-value 0.68±0.03 implies a high stress zone and the spatial correlation dimension 1.81±0.02 implies a highly heterogeneous region where the epicenters are spatially distributed. Low b-values and high D2 values identify the study region as a high hazard zone. Focal mechanism styles and low b-values correlate with thrust nature of earthquakes and show that the earthquake’s occurrence is associated with the dynamics of the faults responsible for generating the past earthquakes.

Abstract:
Abstract. Many factors complicate earthquake sequences, including the heterogeneity and self-similarity of the geological medium, the hierarchical structure of faults and stresses, and small-scale variations in the stresses from different sources. A seismic process is a type of nonlinear dissipative system demonstrating opposing trends towards order and chaos. Transitions from equilibrium to unstable equilibrium and local dynamic instability appear when there is an inflow of energy; reverse transitions appear when energy is dissipating. Several metastable areas of a different scale exist in the seismically active region before an earthquake. Some earthquakes are preceded by precursory phenomena of a different scale in space and time. These include long-term activation, seismic quiescence, foreshocks in the broad and narrow sense, hidden periodical vibrations, effects of the synchronization of seismic activity, and others. Such phenomena indicate that the dynamic system of lithosphere is moving to a new state – catastrophe. A number of examples of medium-term and short-term precursors is shown in this paper. However, no precursors identified to date are clear and unambiguous: the percentage of missed targets and false alarms is high. The weak fluctuations from outer and internal sources play a great role on the eve of an earthquake and the occurrence time of the future event depends on the collective behavior of triggers. The main task is to improve the methods of metastable zone detection and probabilistic forecasting.

Abstract:
The loading rate of tectonic stress is not constant during long-term geotectonic activity and significantly affects the earthquake nucleation and fault rupture process. However, the mechanism underlying the loading rate effect is still unclear. In this study, we conducted a series of experiments to explore the effect of the loading rate on earthquake nucleation and stick–slip characteristics. Through lab experiments, faults were biaxially loaded at varying rates to produce a series of earthquakes (stick–slip events). Both shear strain and fault displacement were monitored during these events. The findings indicate a substantial effect of the loading rate on the recurrence interval and the shear stress drop of these stick–slip events, with the recurrence interval inversely proportional to the loading rate. The peak friction of the fault also decreases with the increasing loading rate. Notably, prior to the dynamic rupture of earthquakes, there exists a stable nucleation phase where slip occurs in a quasi-static manner. The critical nucleation length, or the distance required before the dynamic rupture, diminishes with both the loading rate and normal stress. A theoretical model is introduced to rationalize these observations. However, the rupture velocity of these lab-simulated earthquakes showed no significant correlation with the loading rate. Overall, this study enhanced our comprehension of earthquake nucleation and rupture dynamics in diverse tectonic settings.

Abstract. This paper focuses on extracting the information contained in seismic space-time patterns and their dynamics. The Greek catalog recorded from 1901 to 1999 is analyzed. An Ising Cellular Automata representation technique is developed to reconstruct the history of these patterns. We find that there is strong correlation in the region, and that small earthquakes are very important to the stress transfers. Finally, it is demonstrated that this approach is useful for seismic hazard assessment and intermediate-range earthquake forecasting.

Abstract:
This paper presents an overview of strong motion records obtained from instrumented structures during the 1994 Northridge earthquake. It describes the behaviour of buildings, bridges, and dams that have been instrumented by the major strong motion instrumentation networks operating in California and highlights important features of the most significant structural motions recorded during the earthquake. The structural damage observed during a reconnaissance visit to the affected areas by the earthquake is correlated with preliminary analyses of the recorded motions. Detailed discussions of the dynamic behaviour of two instrumented reinforced concrete buildings that suffered damage during the earthquake are presented. The behaviour of these buildings during previous earthquakes is also examined. This paper and the companion paper on ground motions provide comprehensive information about instrumental records obtained in the region affected by the earthquake. Key words: earthquake engineering, structural response, strong motion instrumentation, damage evaluation, buildings, bridges, dams, structural dynamics, acceleration, amplification.

Abstract:
Since the discovery of extensive earthquake triggering occurring in response to the 1992 Mw (moment magnitude) 7.3 Landers earthquake, it is now well established that seismic waves from earthquakes can trigger other earthquakes, tremor, slow slip, and pore pressure changes. Our contention is that earthquake triggering is one manifestation of a more widespread elastic disturbance that reveals information about Earth’s stress state. Earth’s stress state is central to our understanding of both natural and anthropogenic-induced crustal processes. We show that seismic waves from distant earthquakes may perturb stresses and frictional properties on faults and elastic moduli of the crust in cascading fashion. Transient dynamic stresses place crustal material into a metastable state during which the material recovers through a process termed slow dynamics. This observation of widespread, dynamically induced elastic perturbation, including systematic migration of offshore seismicity, strain transients, and velocity transients, presents a new characterization of Earth’s elastic system that will advance our understanding of plate tectonics, seismicity, and seismic hazards.

Abstract:
Abstract Dynamic rupture models are physics-based simulations that couple fracture mechanics to wave propagation and are used to explain specific earthquake observations or to generate a suite of predictions to understand the influence of frictional, geometrical, stress, and material parameters. These simulations can model single earthquakes or multiple earthquake cycles. The objective of this article is to provide a self-contained and practical guide for students starting in the field of earthquake dynamics. Senior researchers who are interested in learning the first-order constraints and general approaches to dynamic rupture problems will also benefit. We believe this guide is timely given the recent growth of computational resources and the range of sophisticated modeling software that are now available. We start with a succinct discussion of the essential physics of earthquake rupture propagation and walk the reader through the main concepts in dynamic rupture model design. We briefly touch on fully dynamic earthquake cycle models but leave the details of this topic for other publications. We also highlight examples throughout that demonstrate the use of dynamic rupture models to investigate various aspects of the faulting process.

Abstract:
Med utviklingen som har funnet sted innenfor den norske oljebransjen de siste årene har både teknologien og utfordringene blitt mer komplekse. Subsea-operasjoner har blitt mer vanlig og gir utslag i at det på havbunnen i mange felt er sammenkoblede systemer av konstruksjoner. I relasjon til seismisk aktivitet reises da spørsmålet om disse systemene med brønner, rør og andre konstruksjoner kan tåle å bli utsatt for et jordskjelv av en viss størrelse. For å ta et steg i retningen av å besvare dette spørsmålet, dreier denne hovedoppgaven seg om studien av en beskyttelseskonstruksjon som utsettes for grunnakselerasjoner funnet ved probabilistisk evaluering av valgte jordskjelvdata tilgjengelig for den norske kontinentalsokkelen.Den valgte konstruksjonen er lokalisert i Åsgårdfeltet på Haltenbanken vest for midt-Norge. Det er en ganske liten og slank konstruksjon hvis funksjon er å beskytte oljeinstallasjoner fra eventuelle skader forårsaket fra trål og fallende objekter i forbindelse med fiskeriindustrien. I modelleringen av konstruksjonen vurderes den som et produkt av tre forskjellige systemer. Det første systemet er konstruksjonen alene, det andre systemet er jordsystemet og det tredje er fluidsystemet. Dermed ble tre modeller laget der de forskjellige systemegenskapene (fjærer/dempere, hydrodynamiske krefter) ble introdusert stegvis.For å undersøke konstruksjonens respons i forhold til påsatte grunnakselerasjoner, måtte representative tidsrekker for jordskjelv brukes. Disse tidsrekkene ble funnet ved hjelp av probabilistisk vurdering av en syntetisk jorskjelvkatalog. Denne jordskjelvkatalogen ble generert ved å bruke Gutenberg-Richter relasjonen, og de tilhørende parametrene og områdene de gjelder for ble funnet i en rapport angående seismisk inndeling av Norge \cite{zonation}. Jordskjelvparameteren som ble valgt var maksimum grunnakselerasjon (PGA) i både horisontal og vertikal retning estimert ved en relasjon funnet av Ambraseys, med flere \cite{ambhor}\cite{ambver}. Videre ble ordningsstatistikk brukt på de genererte PGA-verdiene ved å bruke Gumbels fordeling for maksima. De resulterende PGA-verdiene i horisontal og vertikal retning ble så brukt for å finne en passende tidsrekke for akselerasjon i en database over jordskjelv for Europa og Midtøsten \cite{esmd}. Deretter ble disse akselerasjonene påsatt de tre modellene og responsen ble evaluert ved ikkelineær direkte implisitt integrasjon. Videre ble en modal analysis av responene utført på den fullt neddykkede modellen for sammenlikningens skyld. Enda en tidsserie ble også påsatt den fullt neddykkede modellen som ble generert basert på det området med høyest seismisk aktivitet, funnet i rapporten nevnt ovenfor for å vurdere det verst tenkelige tilfellet.Resultatene av disse analysene viste at med introduksjon av jord-konstruksjon-interaksjon modellert ved fjærer og dempere, så økte forskyvningene sammenliknet med den fast innspente modellen (konstruksjonen alene). Videre så økte forskyvningene ytterligere ved å introdusere hydrodynamiske krefter. På grunn av små forskyvninger dominerte treghetskreftene responsen for den neddykkede modellen. Med tanke på konstruksjonens oppførsel så ble konstruksjonen nesten ikke affisert av de påsatte grunnakselerasjonene - som er et godt tegn. Imidlertid er det vanskelig å konkludere hvordan andre typer konstruksjoner som rør og platformer ville ha respondert hvis de ble utsatt for de samme grunnakselerasjonene ettersom disse har mye større dimensjoner og annerledes geometri.

Pas de résumé
This thesis consists in two separate parts: one on subcritical fracture experiments, and another one on earthquake statistics. The dynamics of these processes was mainly studied through their scale invariant dynamics, reflected in power law distri- butions of event sizes and times between events. The analyses focuses particularly on the variation of their exponent values and the origins of these variations. Subcritical fracture was studied by two experimental set-ups: creep experiments on paper, and constant-strain fracture of fibre bundles. Paper fracture has been studied in our group for more than 10 years now by visually observing the propaga- tion of the crack. We added acoustic emission monitoring to the experimental set-up in order to compare it to visualisation. The comparison between low frequency image analysis and the high frequency acoustic monitoring allowed to identify the impor- tance of the frequency of analysis for temporally correlated systems, and acoustic emission monitoring revealed the existence of aftershocks in the dynamics of paper fracture. The fibre bundle experiments concentrate on the temporal distribution of the frac- ture events, which follows an Omori law. We studied the influence of the temperature and stress on its exponent, and compared it with results from fibre bundle model analytical predictions and simulations. Our work on earthquakes was initially motivated by the results obtained on pa- per fracture experiments. Hence it starts by a study of aftershock sequences, their Gutenberg-Richter exponent, and the influence of the frequency of analysis on this exponent. By lowering the frequency of the time-magnitude signal we showed that at low frequencies the exponent of the Gutenberg-Richter law depends on the expo- nent of the Omori law. The last chapter of this thesis is concentrated on the early aftershocks. We in- spected the evolution of the properties of an aftershock sequence with time, and observed differences between aftershock occurring shortly after a mainshock, and late aftershocks. These results can be related to the recent proposition of existence of magnitude correlations in earthquakes

Abstract:
The present work addresses a computational methodology to solve dynamic problems coupling time and Laplace domain discretizations within a domain decomposition approach. In particular, the proposed methodology aims at meeting the industrial need of performing more accurate seismic risk assessments by accounting for three-dimensional dynamic soil-structure interaction (DSSI) in nonlinear analysis. Two subdomains are considered in this problem. On the one hand, the linear and unbounded domain of soil which is modelled by an impedance operator computed in the Laplace domain using a Boundary Element (BE) method; and, on the other hand, the superstructure which refers not only to the structure and its foundations but also to a region of soil that possibly exhibits nonlinear behaviour. The latter subdomain is formulated in the time domain and discretized using a Finite Element (FE) method. In this framework, the DSSI forces are expressed as a time convolution integral whose kernel is the inverse Laplace transform of the soil impedance matrix. In order to evaluate this convolution in the time domain by means of the soil impedance matrix (available in the Laplace domain), a Convolution Quadrature-based approach called the Hybrid Laplace-Time domain Approach (HLTA), is thus introduced. Its numerical stability when coupled to Newmark time integration schemes is subsequently investigated through several numerical examples of DSSI applications in linear and nonlinear analyses. The HLTA is finally tested on a more complex numerical model, closer to that of an industrial seismic application, and good results are obtained when compared to the reference solutions.

Abstract:
Ce travail détaille une approche de calcul pour la résolution de problèmes dynamiques qui combinent des discrétisations en temps et dans le domaine de Laplace reposant sur une technique de sous-structuration. En particulier, la méthode développée cherche à remplir le besoin industriel de réaliser des calculs dynamiques tridimensionnels pour le risque sismique en prenant en compte des effets non-linéaires d'interaction sol-structure (ISS). Deux sous-domaines sont considérés dans ce problème. D'une part, le domaine de sol linéaire et non-borné qui est modélisé par une impédance de bord discrétisée dans le domaine de Laplace au moyen d'une méthode d'éléments de frontière ; et, de l'autre part, la superstructure qui fait référence pas seulement à la structure et sa fondation mais aussi, éventuellement, à une partie du sol présentant un comportement non-linéaire. Ce dernier sous-domaine est formulé dans le domaine temporel et discrétisé avec la méthode des éléments finis (FE). Dans ce cadre, les forces liées à l'ISS s'écrivent sous la forme d'une intégrale de convolution en temps dont le noyau est la transformée de Laplace inverse de la matrice d'impédance de sol. Pour pouvoir évaluer cette convolution dans le domaine temporel à partir d'une impédance de sol définie dans le domaine de Laplace, une approche basée sur des Quadratures de Convolution (QC) est présentée : la méthode hybride Laplace-Temps (L-T). La stabilité numérique de son couplage avec un schéma d'intégration de type Newmark est ensuite étudiée sur plusieurs modèles d'ISS en dynamique linéaire et non-linéaire. Finalement, la méthode L-T est testée sur un modèle numérique plus complexe, proche d'une application sismique de caractère industriel, et des résultats satisfaisants sont obtenus par rapport aux solutions de référence

Abstract:
A semi-analytical method of dynamic analysis, capable of predicting both the magnitude and pattern of earthquake induced deformations, is presented. The analysis is based on a modulus reduction approach which uses a reduced modulus to simulate the softening induced in soils during cyclic loading. The effects of the inertia forces developed during dynamic loading on the induced deformations are also included through an appropriate selection of the reduced modulus. The reduced modulus is utilized in a static stress-strain analysis to predict the magnitude and pattern of the deformations induced during earthquake loading. The appropriate modulus reduction is determined from laboratory tests on undisturbed soil samples. Three methods of computing a suitable post-cyclic modulus were investigated but only the cyclic strain approach, in which the modulus is determined from cyclic loading tests that duplicate the field stress conditions, yields reductions of sufficient magnitude to provide realistic estimates of earthquake induced deformations. The modulus reduction analysis was used to predict the deformations occurring during dynamic loading of a model tailings slope in a laboratory shaking table test and of the Upper San Fernando Dam during the earthquake of February, 1971. These studies showed that the modulus reduction analysis is capable of reproducing the dynamically induced deformations and that reductions in the modulus of up to 1000 times may be required. Unfortunately, limitations of the testing equipment and inadequacies in the available data required that the appropriate modulus reductions could not be determined entirely through laboratory and field investigations. Some assumptions were necessary in selecting the reduced modulus values used in the analyses. Although these case studies were, hence, unable to provide full verification of the proposed method, they do demonstrate the reliability and simplicity of the analysis as a method of assessing the performance of soil structures during earthquake loading.
