Self-Arresting and Runaway Earthquakes:Nucleation, Propagation, Gutenberg-Richter law and Dragon-King Events
Didier Sornette, Xueting Wei, Xiaofei Chen
We develop a dissipation-based framework for earthquake rupture on homogeneous faults that explicitly separates the onset of unstable slip from the conditions required for self-sus…

Novel Mechanism for Discrete Scale Invariance in Sandpile Models
M. W. Lee, D. Sornette
Numerical simulations and a mean-field analysis of a sandpile model of earthquake aftershocks in 1d, 2d and 3d euclidean lattices determine that the average stress decays in a punc…

Earthquakes: from chemical alteration to mechanical rupture
D. Sornette
In the standard rebound theory of earthquakes, elastic deformation energy is progressively stored in the crust until a threshold is reached at which it is suddenly released in an e…
