Evidence of Early Supershear Transition in the Mw 7.8 Kahramanmaraş Earthquake From Near-Field Records
Ares Rosakis, Mohamed Abdelmeguid, Ahmed Elbanna
The Mw 7.8 Kahramanmaraş Earthquake was larger and more destructive than what had been expected for the tectonic setting in Southeastern Turkey. By using near-field records we prov…
A Model for Athermal Strain Localization in Dry Sheared Fault Gouge
Xiao Ma, Ahmed Elbanna
Shear banding is widely observed in natural fault zones as well as in gouge layers in laboratory experiments. Understanding the dynamics of strain localization under different load…
Localization and instability in sheared granular materials: Role of friction and vibration
Konik R. Kothari, Ahmed Elbanna
Shear banding and stick-slip instabilities have been long observed in sheared granular materials. Yet, their microscopic underpinnings, interdependencies and variability under diff…
Crack Propagation in Bone on the Scale of Mineralized Collagen Fibrils : Role of Polymers with Sacrificial Bonds and Hidden Length
Wenyi Wang, Ahmed Elbanna
Sacrificial bonds and hidden length (SBHL) in structural molecules provide a mechanism for energy dissipation at the nanoscale. It is hypothesized that their presence leads to grea…
Shear flow of angular grains: acoustic effects and non-monotonic rate dependence of volume
Charles K. C. Lieou, Ahmed E. Elbanna, J. S. Langer +1
Naturally-occurring granular materials often consist of angular particles whose shape and frictional characteristics may have important implications on macroscopic flow rheology. I…
