  1. 6. Bias-adjusted analysis of global natural disaster records and an assessment of seismic hazard in Sweden

    Författare :Niranjan Joshi; Roland Roberts; Ari Tryggvason; Björn Lund; Kuvvet Atakan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Power-law; Natural-disasters; Seismic-hazard assessment.;

    Sammanfattning : Natural disasters pose significant challenges today and demand efficient allocation of society’s limited resources for disaster risk reduction. This relies on analysis of natural disaster records, which are prone to (reporting) biases that can affect the inferences drawn from their analysis. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Microearthquake Study of End-glacial Faults in Northern Sweden

    Författare :Eva Lindblom; Björn Lund; Savka Dineva; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Microearthquakes; End-glacial faults;

    Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER

  3. 8. Physics of Aftershocks in the South Iceland Seismic Zone : Insights into the earthquake process from statistics and numerical modelling of aftershock sequences

    Författare :Mattias Lindman; Roland Roberts; Björn Lund; David Marsan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earthquake processes; Aftershocks; Physics of aftershocks; Omori law; Postseismic processes; Pore pressure diffusion; Poroelasticity; Statistical seismology; Self-organised criticality; Interevent time distributions; Waiting time distributions; Geophysics; Geofysik;

    Sammanfattning : In seismology, an important goal is to attain a better understanding of the earthquake process. In this study of the physics of aftershock generation, I couple statistical analysis with modelling of physical processes in the postseismic period. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Glacial Isostatic Adjustment : Inferences on properties and processes in the upper mantle from 3D dynamical modeling

    Författare :Peter Schmidt; Björn Lund; Christoph Hieronymus; Laust Pedersen; Zdenek Martinec; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Observations of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) offers a powerful window into the properties of the Earth's interior. Combined with dynamical modeling of the GIA process we can use the observations to infer properties such as the elastic structure of the lithosphere, the rheology of the mantle and changes in the stress conditions in the Earth.

  5. 10. Towards reliable seismic hazard assessment in underground mines

    Författare :Wille Törnman; Savka Dineva; Jesper Martinsson; Adam Jonsson; Björn Lund; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mining and Rock Engineering; Gruv- och berganläggningsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Seismic hazard is used for national, regional, and local level to ensure safe constructions in specific areas. In the mining industry this information is valuable e.g. to  design infrastructure or rock support, to reduce the risk of rock burst and to minimise the risk of locating personnel in hazardous areas.
