1. Uemachi Fault Zone

   Linked via "strain rates"

   Analysis of trenching investigations across the UFZ has yielded mixed results regarding precise recurrence intervals, largely due to the unconsolidated nature of the overlying Quaternary sediments, which show evidence of pervasive subsurface fluidization during seismic events.
   Early estimates suggested a recurrence interval for major surface-rupturing earthquakes ($M_w > 6.5$) on…

2. Vortex

   Linked via "strain rate"

   Vortex reconnection is a topological event where two or more vortex lines interact and merge, resulting in a drastic rearrangement of the flow topology and the dissipation of kinetic energy, often converting it into thermal energy. This process requires the fluid to exhibit some degree of viscosity or resistivity, as ideal inviscid flows are mathematically incapable of achieving the necessary alignment of vortex segments to allow f…
