Relation between stress heterogeneity and aftershock rate in the rate-and-state model
[1] We estimate the rate of aftershocks triggered by a heterogeneous stress change, using the rate-and-state model of Dieterich. We show that an exponential stress distribution Pt(t) exp( t/t0) gives an Omori law decay of aftershocks with time 1/t, with an exponent p = 1 Asn/t0, where A is a parameter of the rate-and-state friction law and sn is the normal stress. Omori exponent p thus decrease...
متن کاملEmpirical Assessment of Non-Linear Seismic Demand of Mainshock–Aftershock Ground-Motion Sequences for Japanese Earthquakes
This study investigates the effects of earthquake types, magnitudes, and hysteretic behavior on the peak and residual ductility demands of inelastic single-degree-of-freedom systems and evaluates the effects of major aftershocks on the non-linear structural responses. An extensive dataset of real mainshock–aftershock sequences for Japanese earthquakes is developed. The constructed dataset is la...
متن کاملRupture nucleation on an interface with a power-law relation between stress and displacement discontinuity
We consider rupture initiation and instability on a displacement-weakening interface. It is assumed to follow a power-law relation between a component of displacement discontinuity (whether tensile opening in mode I or shear slippage in modes II or III) and the reduction from peak strength of a corresponding component of stress (normal or shear stress) on the interface. That is, the stress decr...
متن کاملComparison of Seismic Behavior of Buckling-restrained Braces and Yielding Brace System in Irregular and Regular Steel Frames under Mainshock and Mainshock-Aftershock
Due to low stiffness of braces after yielding, the structures with buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) experience high residual drifts during an earthquake, which can be intensified by aftershocks and causes considerable damages to structures. Also, due to poor distribution of stiffness, this problem is exacerbated for irregular structures. Recently, the yielding brace system (YBS) has been intro...
متن کاملAnomalous early aftershock decay rate of the 2004 Mw6.0 Parkfield, California, earthquake
[1] We analyze the seismicity rate immediately after the 2004 Mw6.0 Parkfield, California, earthquake from nearsource seismograms. By scrutinizing high-frequency signals, we can distinguish mainshock coda from early aftershocks occurring as soon as 30 s after the mainshock. We find, as expected, that a significant fraction of aftershocks in the first few hours after the main shock are missing i...
