Dear Colleagues,

Here is to draw your attenuation that Advances in Earthquake Source Physics Workshop will be held by Seismo Lab at UCL in London this fall. The aim of this workshop is to gather the community working on earthquake source processes, the development of fully dynamic numerical simulations of dynamic rupture, new laboratory rock deformation experiments (high-velocity friction, instrumented stick-slip tests), new seismological observations and inversion methods discuss the latest progress in the various aspect of the field, and potentially foster future collaborations.

Please register early if you are interested.

sincerely,

Teh-Ru Alex Song



Advances in Earthquake
Source Physics Workshop

1st - 2nd September 2014
Gustav Tuck lecture theatre
University College London

www.ucl.ac.uk/seismolab/workshop2014/http://www.ucl.ac.uk/seismolab/workshop2014/

Conveners: Nicolas Brantut, Ana Ferreira, Tom Mitchell
and Teh-Ru Alex Song


Over the past few years there has been increasing research efforts directed towards a better understanding of earthquake source processes, enabled by the development of fully dynamic numerical simulations of dynamic rupture, new laboratory rock deformation experiments (high-velocity friction, instrumented stick-slip tests) and new seismological observations and inversion methods. The aim of this workshop is to gather a small core of the community working on those topics, discuss the latest progress in the various aspect of the field, and potentially foster future collaborations.

The workshop will be based around keynote talks by leaders in the field, with plenty of time allowed for discussions. The workshop will include a poster session to allow atendees to present their current research. We encourage both researchers and students to attend and present their work.

Registration fee is £35. We have a limited number of places, so please register early.

Registration is now open herehttps://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/advances-in-earthquake-source-physics-workshop-tickets-11085550179 and closes on June 1st.
For more information, please email tom.mitchell<at>ucl.ac.uk<tom.mitchell<at>ucl.ac.uk>.
