Laboratory Simulation of Volcano Seismicity (2008)

Benson, P.; Univ. Toronto, Canada, Vinciguerra, S.; Istituto Nazionale Di Geofisica E Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia, Meredith, P.; UCL, UK, Young, P.; Univ. Toronto, Canada

Physical processes generating seismicity within volcanic edifices are highly complex and remain not fully understood. We report results from a laboratory experiment in which basalt from Mount Etna...

Applying Rock Physics to Natural Hazards (2008)

Vinciguerra, S.; Istituto Nazionale Di Geofisica E Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia, Bernabé, Y.; MIT, USA

Natural hazards events such as Earthquakes or volcanic eruptions involve activation of coupled thermo-hydro-chemo-mechanical processes in rocks. A workshop sponsored by the Italian Istituto Nazionale...

Constraining melt concentration and strain distribution around basalt dykes in partially molten systems (2008)

Vinciguerra, S.; Istituto Nazionale Di Geofisica E Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia, Xiao, X.; MIT, USA, Evans, B.; MIT, USA

We performed experiments to determine melt concentration and strain distributions around basalt dykes in a San Carlos olivine matrix containing 10 wt% MORB. Undrained triaxial compression tests were...

Constraining melt concentration and strain distribution around basalt dykes in partially molten olivines (2008)

Vinciguerra, S.; Istituto Nazionale Di Geofisica E Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia, Xiao, X.; MIT, USA, Evans, B.; MIT, USA

We performed experiments to determine melt concentration and strain distributions around basalt dykes in a San Carlos olivine matrix containing 10 wt% MORB. Undrained triaxial compression tests were...

The evolution of elastic moduli with increasing crack damage during cyclic stressing of a basalt from Mt. Etna volcano (2008)

Heap, M.; UCL, UK, Vinciguerra, S.; Istituto Nazionale Di Geofisica E Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia, Meredith, P. G.; UCL, UK

Volcanic edifices, such as Mt. Etna (Italy), are commonly subject to repeated cycles of stress over time due to the combination of magma emplacement from deep reservoirs to shallow depths and...

Self-Organized Criticality and earthquakes (2007)

Caruso, F., Pluchino, A., Latora, V., Rapisarda, A., Vinciguerra, S.

We discuss recent results on a new analysis regarding models showing Self-Organized Criticality (SOC), and in particular on the OFC one. We show that Probability Density Functions (PDFs) for the...

Imaging slow failure in triaxially deformed Etna basalt using 3D acoustic-emission location and X-ray computed tomography (2007)

Benson, P.M., Thompson, B.D., Meredith, P.G., Vinciguerra, S., Young, R.P.

We have deformed basalt from Mount Etna (Italy) in triaxial compression tests under an effective confining pressure representative of conditions under a volcanic edifice (40 MPa), and at a constant...

Seismicity preceding volcanic eruptions: new experimental insights (2007)

Burlini, L., Vinciguerra, S., Di Toro, G., De Natale, G., Meredith, P.

A variety of seismic signals representing different physical mechanisms precedes volcanic eruptions. The most meaningful signals are high- and low-frequency earthquakes and volcanic tremor that have...

Modeling the permeability evolution of microcracked rocks from elastic wave velocity inversion at elevated isostatic pressure (2006)

Benson, P., Schubnel, A., Vinciguerra, S., Trovato, C., Meredith, P., Young, R.P.

A key consequence of the presence of microcracks within rock is their significant influence upon elastic anisotropy and transport properties. Here two rock types (a basalt and a granite) with...

The 1980 pressure response and flank failure of Mount St. Helens (USA) inferred from seismic scaling exponents (2005)

Vinciguerra, S., Elsworth, D., Malone, S.

The cataclysmic 18 May 1980 eruption at Mount St. Helens was preceded by intense seismic activity marking the mechanical response of the volcanic edifice to interior pressurisation. This seismicity...

Non-Poisson distribution of the time distances between two consecutive clusters of earthquakes (2004)

Palatella, L., Allegrini, P., Grigolini, P., Latora, V., Mega, M. S., Rapisarda, A., ...

With the help of the Diffusion Entropy technique we show the non-Poisson statistics of the distances between consecutive Omori's swarms of earthquakes. We give an analytical proof of the numerical...

Experimental and modeling study of fluid pressure-driven fractures in Darley Dale sandstone (2004)

Vinciguerra, S., Meredith, P.G., Hazzard, J.

We report measurements of acoustic emissions (AE) generated during formation and growth of pressure driven fractures in cylindrical samples of Darley Dale sandstone that were co-axially pre-drilled...

Detection of invisible and crucial events: from seismic fluctuations to the war against terrorism (2004)

Allegrini, P., Fronzoni, L., Grigolini, P., Latora, V., Mega, M. S., Palatella, L., ...

We argue that the recent discovery of the non-Poissonian statistics of the seismic main-shocks is a special case of a more general approach to the detection of the distribution of the time increments...

Vinciguerra, S., Meredith, P. G., Hazzard, J.

Palatella, L., Allegrini, P., Grigolini, P., Latora, V., Mega, M.S., Rapisarda, A., ...

With the help of the di0usion entropy technique we show the non-Poisson statistics of the distances between consecutive Omori’s swarms of earthquakes. We give an analytical proof of the numerical...
