Moment Tensor and Stress Field Inversions of Mining-Induced Seismicity in A Thick-Hard Roof Zone
Coal mining in thick-hard roof areas leads to frequent high-energy seismicity and may even induce coal–rock dynamic disasters such as rockburst. It...

The temporal evolution of induced seismicity sequences generated by low-pressure, long-term fluid injection
Traffic light schemes (TLSs) are commonly used to mitigate induced seismicity caused by subsurface fluid injection. Verdon and Bommer (J Seismol...

Improved spatial understanding of induced seismicity hazard from the discretization of a curved fault surface
In some geomechanical treatments of induced seismicity, the fault surface is idealized to be a plane. We depart from this assumption by comparing a...

Failure mechanism and control of the coal bursts triggered by mining-induced seismicity: a case study
Mining-induced seismicity-triggered coal bursts (MISTCB) have become a major impediment to the safety of underground coal mining. Based on a severe...

Probabilistic Evaluation of Susceptibility to Fluid Injection-Induced Seismicity Based on Statistics of Fracture Criticality
Fault reactivation and associated microseismicity pose a potential threat to industrial processes involving fluid injection into the subsurface. In...

Moment Tensor Inversion and Coseismic Stress Characteristics of Mining-Induced Seismicity in Coal Pillar Area
Coal pillars are often set up to protect roadways from rockburst hazards in the working face; however, the presence of coal pillars is a...

A novel approach to identifying seismogenic structures and estimating reservoir volume based on synthetic cloud of seismicity induced by hydraulic fracturing
Precise imaging of formed fractures and delineation of a reservoir’s boundaries within a scattered seismic cloud is complicated by inaccuracies in...

Laboratory Fracture Slip and Seismicity Subjected to Fluid Injection-Related Stress and Pressure Paths
Causal mechanisms for fluid injection-induced seismicity are characterised by various stress paths to drive slippage of underlying fractures....
