Fractal dimension and earthquake frequency-magnitude distribution in the North of Central-East Iran Blocks (NCEIB)

The Gutenberg–Richter parameters (a and b), fractal dimension (DC), and relationships between these parameters are calculated for different regions of the North of Central-East Iran Blocks (NCEIB). The whole examined area (between 34°-36° N and 55°-61° E) is divided into 55 equal square grids. Both the a and b values for the frequency-magnitude distribution (FMD) and the fractal dimension (DC) ...

Earthquake Frequency - Magnitude Distribution and Interface Locking at the Middle

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my primary advisor Dr. Andrew V. Newman for providing his excellent guidance and scientific insight throughout the study. I am thankful to Dr. for their thoughtful advice and suggestions. I am grateful to Dr. Tapas Bhattacharyya for the stimulating discussions and his support. I would also like to thank numerous prior and recent earthquake analysts, includ...

Estimation of the Maximum Earthquake Magnitude, mmax

This paper provides a generic equation for the evaluation of the maximum earthquake magnitude mmax for a given seismogenic zone or entire region. The equation is capable of generating solutions in different forms, depending on the assumptions of the statistical distribution model and/or the available information regarding past seismicity. It includes the cases (i) when earthquake magnitudes are...
