Korea has been recognized as an earthquake-safe zone, but over recent decades, several
earthquakes, at a medium scale or higher, have occurred in succession in and around the …

The seismicity of the Yangsan fault in southeastern S. Korea has received increasing
attention recently because the fault lies in an industrial area. For this fault region, we first …

We characterize the present-day stress tensor in southeastern Korean Peninsula using two
different sets of data (geotechnical in situ stress data and earthquake focal mechanism …

The internal structure and materials of a fault are crucial to understanding its mechanical
and fluid flow behaviors because they are interrelated. The Yangsan fault is a major …

Based on field relations and petrographic characteristics, alkali-feldspar granite in the Gigye
area on the western side of the Yangsan fault is classified as an A-type granite. It is mainly …

일반적으로 규모 6 이상의 지진과 관련된 단층 파열은 지표까지 전파, 확장될 수 있으며, 이 경우
지표변위가 발생한다. 따라서 제 4 기 지형 또는 퇴적층에 기록된 지표변위 증거는 중대규모 …

Earthquake fault slip accompanied by surface ruptures may occur not only along main fault
cores but also along subsidiary faults in damage zones of major (or mature) faults …

In order to elucidate the structural characteristics of the Yangsan Fault in southeastern Korea
the Ganggu-Angang area has been studied in terms of fault branching and fault linkages …

The NNE trending dextral Yangsan fault system and the WNW trending sinistral Gaum fault
system comprise a conjugate set that cuts the Cretaceous Gyeongsang Basin along the SE …

We present results of mechanical slip tendency analysis on 23 Quaternary faults in
southeast Korea based on the fault orientations with respect to the present-day in-situ stress …
