Seismic and aseismic slip pulses driven by thermal pressurization of pore fluid

Garagash, D. I.. 2012. "Seismic and aseismic slip pulses driven by thermal pressurization of pore fluid." Journal of Geophysical Research-Solid Earth 117: 04314-B04314. DOI:10.1029/2011JB008889

There are several lines of evidence that suggest that thermal pressurization (TP) of pore fluid within a low-permeability fault core may play the key role in the development of earthquake slip. To elucidate effects of TP ...

Self-Healing Concrete: A Review of Recent Research Developments and Existing Research Gaps

Mahmoodi, Sina and Sadeghian, Pedram (2019). Self-Healing Concrete: A Review of Recent Research Developments and Existing Research Gaps. In CSCE Annual Conference: Mechanics and Materials Specialty.
