From surface morphologies to inner structures: insights into hypermobility of the Nixu rock avalanche, southern Tibet, China
Large rock avalanches often result in many deaths and catastrophic damage to infrastructure far from source. No consensus has yet been reached on mechanisms causing their extraordinarily long runout since the ...

10Be dating and seismic origin of Luanshibao rock avalanche in SE Tibetan Plateau and implications on Litang active fault
Moderate-large earthquakes usually trigger a large number of landslides. The prehistoric large landslides can be analyzed to determine the probability of its seismic origin, and further recognized as an indica...

Seismic Constraints on the Lithosphere–Asthenosphere Boundary Beneath the Izu-Bonin Area: Implications for the Oceanic Lithospheric Thinning
The lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary (LAB) is the seismic discontinuity with negative velocity contrasts in the upper mantle. Seismic detections on the LAB are of great significance in understanding the plat...

The inversion of density structure by graphic processing unit (GPU) and identification of igneous rocks in **sha area
Organic reefs, the targets of deep-water petroleum exploration, developed widely in **sha area. However, there are concealed igneous rocks undersea, to which organic rocks have nearly equal wave impedance. So ...

Empirical rheological law of multiphase rocks: Energy minimizing approach independent of bound theory
Based on energy minimizing approach of bound theory, the influence of the distribution of constituent minerals on rheological property of rocks is discussed. Energy minimizing approach independent of the bound...

A preliminary model for 3-D rheological structure of the lithosphere in North China
3-D structures of velocity and temperature are obtained using the data of P-wave velocity and heat flow in North China (105°E—124°E, 30°N—42°N). Taking into account the effect of three main rheological mechani...

Coupling between different layers of the lithosphere under horizontal drag underneath
Based on a layered Theological model of the lithosphere, the velocity and stress distributions in the lithosphere under horizontal drag underneath were calculated using viscoelastic finite element method of pl...
