From Stress Chains to Acoustic Emission

A numerical scheme using the combined finite-discrete element method is employed to study a model of an earthquake system comprising a granular layer embedded in a formation. When the formation is driven so as to shear the granular layer, a system of stress chains emerges. The stress chains endow th...
