Kinematic models of interseismic deformation in Southern California
… is determined by the balance between coseismic moment release and interseismic moment accumulation. We identify regions of local moment deficit in Southern California by comparing historical earthquake catalogs with the fault slip rate catalogs derived from both geologic and geodetic data. Large …

Analysis and modeling of transient earthquake patterns and their dependence on local stress regimes
… properties, namely, the relative seismic moment release of the aftershocks with respect to the mainshocks; the spatial correlation between aftershock occurrence and fault deformation; and on the influence of aseismic transients on the aftershock parameter estimation. For the analysis of …

Space-time rupture properties of large earthquakes
… of both an ordinary earthquake and a smooth moment-release transient of longer duration. Low-frequency normal-mode based studies which support the compound event hypothesis have suggested that low-frequency source-spectra of some slow earthquakes require that the slow-component initiated …

Fault plane structure of the 1995 Antofagasta Earthquake (Chile) derived from local seismological parameters
… the spatial distribution of slip and seismic moment release caused by the mainshock. Both parameters are often concentrated on patches on the fault plane with much higher values for slip and moment release than their adjacent areas. These patches are called asperities which obviously have a …

Seismic Constraints on Slow Slip Events within the Cascadia Subduction Zone
… they offer the highest resolution for studying moment release through time. To test the hypothesis that tremor and transient deformation are two manifestations of the same faulting process, and to quantify the relative contribution of moment release during times of strain-transients versus other …

Influence of weld profile on fatigue crack growth in tubular welded joints
… function method combined with either linear moment release or quadratic moment release model provides a satisfactory method for calculating the stress intensity factors for fatigue cracks in tubular welded joints. Crack initiation life in the tubular joints was predicted using the local …

Investigation of Culvert Joints Employing Large Scale Tests and Numerical Simulations
… loading. The joints investigated are either ‘moment-release’ joints (those that accommodate rotation and reduce the longitudinal bending moments close to zero), or ‘moment-transfer’ joints (those that limit rotation and transfer longitudinal bending moments from one pipe to the next). These …

SAR interferometry analysis of surface processes in the Pamir – Tien Shan active orogens - emphasis on coseismic deformation and landslides
… data and geological field observations. The main moment release of the Nura earthquake appears to be on the Pamir Frontal thrust, while the main surface displacements and surface rupture occurred in the footwall and along of the NE–SW striking Irkeshtam fault. With InSAR data from ascending and …
