An international study published in Communications Earth & Environment has advanced earthquake simulations to better anticipate the rupture process of large earthquakes. Using data for the Turkey ...

On New Year's Day 2024, a massive 7.5-magnitude earthquake struck the Noto Peninsula in north central Japan, resulting in extensive damage in the region caused by uplift, when the land rises due to ...

Scientists at the University of Bristol have used the UK's largest shaking table to mimic conditions of a medium-magnitude earthquake to assess the potential damage to a 3D-printed building. The ...

Earthquakes create ripple effects in Earth's upper atmosphere that can disrupt satellite communications and navigation systems we rely on. Scientists have now used Japan's extensive network of Global ...

Scientists used supercomputer simulation to reveal the underlying mechanism by which the irregular fault geometry, characterized by multisegments, controlled the variation of the fault slip and ...

A new international study seen in Communications Earth & Environment and led by King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) Professor Martin Mai and scientist Bo Li has advanced ...
