New Approach to Gutenberg-Richter Scaling

Journal Article Serino, C A ; Tiampo, K F ; Klein, W - Physical Review Letters

We introduce a new model for an earthquake fault system that is composed of noninteracting simple lattice models with different levels of damage denoted by q. The undamaged lattice models (q=0) have Gutenberg-Richter scaling with a cumulative exponent {beta}=1/2, whereas the damaged models do not have well defined scaling. However, if we consider the 'fault system' consisting of all models, damaged and undamaged, we get excellent scaling with the exponent depending on the relative frequency with which faults with a particular amount of damage occur in the fault system. This paradigm combines the idea that Gutenberg-Richter scaling is associated withmore »« less

Derivation of the complete Gutenberg-Richter magnitude-frequency relation using the principle of scale invariance

Journal Article Rundle, J B - Journal of Geophysical Research; (USA)

The purpose of this paper is to show that the various observational parameters characterizing the statistical properties of earthquakes can be related to each other. The fundamental postulate which is used to obtain quantitative results is the idea that the physics of earthquake occurrence scales as a power law, similar to properties one often sees in critical phenomena. When the physics of earthquake occurrence is exactly scale invariant, {ital b}=1, and it can be shown as a consequence that earthquakes in any magnitude band {Delta}m cover the same area in unit time. This result therefore implies the existence of amore »« less

Deviations from the Gutenberg–Richter law on account of a random distribution of block sizes

Journal Article Sibiryakov, B. P., E-mail: sibiryakovbp@ipgg.sbras.ru ; Novosibirsk State University, Novosibirsk, 630090 - AIP Conference Proceedings

This paper studies properties of a continuum with structure. The characteristic size of the structure governs the fact that difference relations are nonautomatically transformed into differential ones. It is impossible to consider an infinitesimal volume of a body, to which the major conservation laws could be applied, because the minimum representative volume of the body must contain at least a few elementary microstructures. The corresponding equations of motion are equations of infinite order, solutions of which include, along with usual sound waves, unusual waves with abnormally low velocities without a lower limit. It is shown that in such media weakmore »« less

New approaches to urban-scale transportation emissions modeling under a new Clean Air Act

Conference Saricks, C L ; Vyas, A D

The sources of urban air pollution were well known and documented, but standard practice in estimating the specific contribution of these sources (hence their appropriate respective roles in scaling back emissions) has been found in many instances to be no more precise now than in the late 1970s, as development of the last major round of State Implementation Plans (SIPs) was underway around the nation. In particular, techniques of estimating (and forecasting) emissions from transportation sources in specific urban areas, with the possible exception of those in California, have not progressed significantly in ten years. Reasons for this are numerous,more »« less
A new approach for modeling and analysis of molten salt reactors using SCALE

Conference Powers, J. J. ; Harrison, T. J. ; Gehin, J. C.

The Office of Fuel Cycle Technologies (FCT) of the DOE Office of Nuclear Energy is performing an evaluation and screening of potential fuel cycle options to provide information that can support future research and development decisions based on the more promising fuel cycle options. [1] A comprehensive set of fuel cycle options are put into evaluation groups based on physics and fuel cycle characteristics. Representative options for each group are then evaluated to provide the quantitative information needed to support the valuation of criteria and metrics used for the study. Included in this set of representative options are Molten Saltmore »« less
