3. Acoustic Emission and Critical Phenomena

   From Structural Mechanics to Geophysics

   Edited by Alberto Carpinteri, Giuseppe Lacidogna

   The Acoustic Emission (AE) technique uses ad hoc transducers to detect AE events caused by crack growth in structures under external loading. This technique is similar to the one employed in earthquake control, where seismic waves reach the monitoring stations placed on the surface of the Earth....

4. Earthquakes and Acoustic Emission

   Selected Papers from the 11th International Conference on Fracture, Turin, Italy, March 20-25, 2005

   Edited by Alberto Carpinteri, Giuseppe Lacidogna

   Earthquakes are caused by the sudden release of energy during the fracture of stressed rock within the Earth’s crust. This phenomenon is similar to that which occurs in materials under load, and although they take place on very different scales, these two phenomena - earthquakes in geophysics and...
