Using avalanche statistics to forecast failure in models of earthquake faults and magnets
… systems, such as magnets, granular matter, earthquake faults, neuronal networks, and of course the classic example of snow flows on mountains. By studying the statistics of avalanche sizes, we can understand the response of such systems to external driving forces, as well and their …

The role of heterogeneity in long-range interacting systems : from nucleation to earthquake fault systems
… Ising model with long-range interactions. Earthquake fault systems under long-range stress transfer with varying types of heterogeneity will be the second system of interest. First I will review the use of the intervention method to determine the time and place of nucleation and extend its …

The structural architecture of seismogenic faults, Sierra Nevada, California; implications for earthquake rupture processes
Earthquake ruptures along tectonically active faults nucleate predominantly at depths of 5 to 12km in the crust, so the portions of faults that slip in these events cannot be directly observed. The geometry and composition of seismogenic faults controls the nucleation, propagation and termination …
