Evolution of b-value during the seismic cycle: Insights from laboratory experiments on simulated faults (2018, background): “…on the relationship between b-value, earthquake physics and the scaling laws for seismic sources, e.g., Hanks (1979), Pacheco et al. (1992), Scholz (2002), including works showing that b-value correlates with the local differential stress (σ1 − σ3) at both laboratory and tectonic scales…”
Damage quantification of intact rocks using acoustic emission energies recorded during uniaxial compression test and discrete element modeling (2015, methodology): “Thus, without any further corrections to consider signal loss due to attenuation, having the released energy, magnitude of an AE event can be calculated by the empirical Equation (2) [Scholz, 2002]:”
Fault Reactivation by Fluid Injection: Controls From Stress State and Injection Rate (2018, background): “(1) This simple concept has been used extensively to explain a range of natural and experimental rock deformation phenomena [see reviews in Scholz, 2002; Paterson and Wong, 2005].”
Earthquake Initiation From Laboratory Observations and Implications for Foreshocks (2019, background): “Laboratory samples that contain a sawcut simulated fault often deform in a series of dynamic slip events referred to as “stick‐slip” events (Scholz, 2002).”
