The spontaneously propagating shear crack on a frictional interface has proven to be a
useful idealization of a natural earthquake. The corresponding boundary value problems are …

Several materials of technological interest could be considered as heterogeneous and their
random nature can be accounted to be the cause of the nonlinear behavior. The quantitative …

We present an end-to-end optimization of the innovative Arbitrary high-order DERivative
Discontinuous Galerkin (ADER-DG) software SeisSol targeting Intel® Xeon Phi coprocessor …

The moment magnitude (M) 7.9 Denali Fault, Alaska, earthquake of 3 November 2002
triggered thousands of landslides, primarily rock falls and rock slides, that ranged in volume …

We present a high-resolution simulation of the 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake,
including non-linear frictional failure on a megathrustsplay fault system. Our method exploits …

An important goal of computational seismology is to simulate dynamic earthquake rupture
and strong ground motion in realistic models that include crustal heterogeneities and …

We adapt the traction‐at‐split‐node method for spontaneous rupture simulations to the
velocity‐stress staggered‐grid finite difference scheme. The staggered‐grid implementation …

The crack propagation simulation is still an open problem in the mechanical simulation field.
In the present work this problem is analyzed using a version of truss-like Discrete Element …

Near‐source ground‐motion observations and kinematic source inversions suggest that the
rupture process of the 2011 M w 9.0 Tohoku earthquake involved rupture reactivation, that …

In the present work, a phase-field lattice model (PFLM) is proposed to model fracture
problems. The element deletion process and oversimplified failure criterion of the classical …
