Did you hear that we can predict earthquake occurrence in the laboratory using Machine Learning? You might have already seen some great and interesting papers related to this topic. However, nearly all studies focused so far on the smooth faults,…
Using Acoustic Emission data from triaxial fracture experiments performed in our laboratory on Westerly Granite samples, Andrew Patton published a paper in Physical Rewiew E entitled “Large-scale heterogeneities can alter the characteristics of compressive failure and accelerated seismic release”. The…
Carolin Boese published a paper entitled “Performance Evaluation of AE Sensors Installed Like Hydrophones in Adaptive Monitoring Networks During a Decametre‑Scale Hydraulic Stimulation Experiment“. The contribution has been accepted for Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering journal. To determine the AE…
Simon published a paper in Journal of Geophysical Research, Solid Earth entitled “Preparatory Slip in Laboratory Faults: Effects of Roughness and Load Point Velocity”. Simon’s paper presents outcomes of displacement-rate controlled friction experiments on roughened sawcut granite samples with different…
