Forecasting the time of failure of landslides at slope-scale is a difficult yet important task that
can mitigate the effects of slope failures in terms of both human lives and economic losses …

The microstructure and mineralogy of volcanic rocks is varied and complex, and their
mechanical behaviour is similarly varied and complex. This review summarises recent …

With the emergence of portable broadband seismic instrumentation, availability of digital
networks with wide dynamic range, and development of new powerful analysis techniques …

We consider the current state of our understanding of the rheology of two-phase magmas,
that is suspensions of either bubbles or crystals in a viscous silicate melt. The discussion is …

An evidently precursory acoustic emission (AE) time series, characterized by a time‐
reversed Omori law, is registered prior to the unconfined catastrophic rupture of brittle …

Wearable acoustic sensors can be used for voice recognition. However, the capabilities of
such devices, which are typically based on solid materials, are often restricted by ambient …

Rhyolite magma has fuelled some of the Earth's largest explosive volcanic eruptions. Our
understanding of these events is incomplete, however, owing to the previous lack of directly …

Magma fragmentation is the breakup of a continuous volume of molten rock into discrete
pieces, called pyroclasts. Because magma contains bubbles of compressible magmatic …

The reliable assessment of volcanic unrest must rest on an understanding of the rocks that
form the edifice. It is their microstructure that dictates their physical properties and …

When considering the rheology of a suspension the fundamental physical aspect to be
quantified is the redistribution of strain between the deformable matrix fraction of the …
