A posteriori discontinuous Galerkin error estimator for linear elasticity (2018)
Journal Article
Bird, R., Coombs, W., & Giani, S. (2019). A posteriori discontinuous Galerkin error estimator for linear elasticity. Applied Mathematics and Computation, 344-345, 78-96. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.amc.2018.08.039

This paper presents for the first time the derivation of an hp a posteriori error estimator for the symmetric interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for linear elastic analysis. Any combination of Neumann and Dirichlet boundary... Read More about A posteriori discontinuous Galerkin error estimator for linear elasticity.

Earthquake Nucleation Size: Evidence of Loading Rate Dependence in Laboratory Faults (2018)
Journal Article
Guérin‐Marthe, S., Nielsen, S., Bird, R., Giani, S., & Di Toro, G. (2018). Earthquake Nucleation Size: Evidence of Loading Rate Dependence in Laboratory Faults. Journal of Geophysical Research. Solid Earth, 124(1), 689-708. https://doi.org/10.1029/2018jb016803

Recent GPS observations of major earthquakes such as the 2014 Chile megathrust show a slow pre‐slip phase releasing a significant portion of the total moment (Ruiz et al., 2014). Despite advances from theoretical stability analysis (Rubin & Ampuero,... Read More about Earthquake Nucleation Size: Evidence of Loading Rate Dependence in Laboratory Faults.
