    • Earthquake dynamics on circular faults: a review 1970–2015 
      Madariaga, Raúl; Ruiz Tapia, Sergio (Springer, 2016)
      We review the development of earthquake dynamics taken from the point of view of the origin of seismic radiation instead of the detailed study of rupture propagation on complex surfaces. Many features of seismic radiation ...
    • The geometry of the Chilean continental wedge: Tectonic segmentation of subduction processes off Chile 
      Maksymowicz Jeria, Andrei (Elsevier, 2015)
      Based on high-resolution bathymetry and geophysical observations, the precise continental wedge geometry along the Chileanmargin is analyzed. The data showcomplex patterns in continentalwedge geometry that challenge the ...
    • Huge slope collapses flashing the andean active orogenic front (argentinean precordillera 31-33°s) 
      Junquera Torrado, Sebastián; Moreiras, Stella Maris; Sepúlveda, Sergio A. (Springer, 2017)
      The study area is located along the Andean active orogenic front comprising the mostseismically active region of Argentina. Main Quaternary deformation is concentrated in thisWestern central part of the country associated ...
    • Identifying optimal portfolios of resilient network Investments against natural hazards, With applications ... 
      Lagos González, Tomás; Moreno Vieyra, Rodrigo; Navarro Espinosa, Alejandro; Panteli, Mathaios; Sacaan Amunátegui, Rafael; Ordóñez, Fernando; Rudnick, Hugh; Mancarella, Pierluigi (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
      Although extreme natural disasters have occurred all over the world throughout history, power systems planners do not usually recognize them within network investment methodologies. Moreover, planners had historically ...
    • Near-Field Spectra of Large Earthquakes 
      Madariaga, Raul; Ruiz Tapia, Sergio; Rivera, Efrain; Leyton, Felipe; Baez, Juan Carlos (Birkhauser Verlag AG, 2019)
      © 2018, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.We have studied the spectra of large subduction earthquakes in Chile at short epicentral distances. In this work, we concentrate on the Mw 8.2, Iquique earthquake of 1 April 2014. For ...
    • Non-universal critical exponents in earthquake complex networks 
      Pastén, Denisse; Torres, Felipe; Toledo Cabrera, Benjamín; Muñoz, Víctor; Rogan Castillo, José; Valdivia, Juan (Elsevier B.V., 2018)
      The problem of universality of critical exponents in complex networks is studied based on networks built from seismic data sets. Using two data sets corresponding to Chilean seismicity (northern zone, including the 2014 ...
    • Real-time earthquake warning for astronomical observatories 
      Coughlin, Michael; Stubbs, Christopher; Barrientos, Sergio; Claver, Chuck; Harms, Jan; Smith, R. Chris; Warner, Michael (Springer, 2015)
      Early earthquake warning is a rapidly developing capability that has significant ramifications for many fields, including astronomical observatories. In this work, we describe the susceptibility of astronomical facilities ...
    • Relationship between subduction erosion and the up-dip limit of the 2014 Mw 8.1 Iquique earthquake 
      Petersen, Florian; Lange, Dietrich; Ma, Bo; Grevemeyer, Ingo; Geersen, Jacob; Klaeschen, Dirk; Contreras Reyes, Eduardo Eliseo; Barrientos Parra, Sergio Eduardo; Tréhu, Anne M.; Vera, Emilio; Kopp, Heidrun (American Geophysical Union, USA, 2021)
      The aftershock distribution of the 2014 Mw 8.1 Iquique earthquake offshore northern Chile, identified from a long-term deployment of ocean bottom seismometers installed eight months after the mainshock, in conjunction with ...
    • Seismic resilience assessment and adaptation of the Northern Chilean power system 
      Espinoza, Sebastián; Sacaan, Rafael; Rudnick, Hugh; Panteli, Mathaios; Mancarella, Pierluigi; Poulos, Alan; De La Llera, Juan; Navarro, Alejandro; Moreno, Rodrigo (IEEE Computer Society, 2018)
      Even though the concept of resilience is becoming widely used in electric power systems, there is no consensus on how to systematically model or quantify it. This article begins by proposing a classification for different ...
    • Seismotectonics of southeast France: from the Jura mountains to Corsica 
      Larroque, Christophe; Baize, Stéphane; Albaric, Julie; Jomard, Hervé; Trévisan, Jenny; Godano, Maxime; Cushing, Marc; Deschamps, Anne; Sue, Christian; Delouis, Bertrand; Potin, Bertrand; Courboulex, Francoise; Régnier, Marc; Rivet, Diane; Brunel, Didier; Cheze, Jerome; Martin, Xavier; Maron, Christophe; Peix, Fabrice (Centre Mersenne pour l’édition scientifique ouverte, 2021)
      The analysis of the seismicity catalog (1996 to 2019) covering the region from the Jura mountains to Corsica provides a first-order image of the distribution of earthquakes, highlighting large structures such as the ...
    • Time-series analysis of earthquake sequences by means of information recognizer 
      Vogel, E. E.; Saravia, G.; Pastén Guzmán, Denisse; Muñoz Gálvez, Víctor (Elsevier, 2017)
      Three seismic sequences of several thousand earthquakes each are analyzed by means of a tunable information recognizer known as wlzip. These sequences are different both in the geographical coverage and the time span, ...
