Petrinja earthquake (2020); Quantectum technical report The Petrinja M6.4 earthquake on 29/12/2020 was an unusual event, accompanied by relatively low shear-stress and shear-traction fields. Therefore, no medium-term forecasts for this event were possible based on the analysis of shear-traction f...

Precursory stress changes before large earthquakes; on a new physical law for earthquakes For more than a century, scientists wondered what happens before large earthquakes. Are there any precursors? Finally, we have an answer to this question. Recently, the Quantectum team published a new artic...

A new way of observing the tectonic waves Access the article on the following ELSEVIER link: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0191814120303011 In this paper, two observations of the breather-type oscillating tectonic shear stress field in the Earth's crust are described. The n...

Quantectum Ensemble Earthquake Forecasting System (QEEFS)? Classically, numerical earthquake prediction was supposed to be based on a single, deterministic prediction. However, this approach is not used by Quantectum. Since seismic systems are chaotic, Quantectum uses several models to predict or...

Data assimilation module Introduction To make forecasts we need to know the past and the current state of the system, and needs to understand the processes that govern the system changes. The Quantectum earthquake forecasts use a data assimilation module to estimate the initial conditions of the...

Direct earthquake warning issues by Quantectum system Preliminary 2020 version Introduction Finding a clear and reliable earthquake precursor that would allow for the direct earthquake warning issues was a dream by seismologist for more than a hundred years. In the past, seismologists have trie...

How Quantectum Forecasts Earthquakes? Introduction In May 2012, two strong earthquakes hit Northern Italy. The first struck on the 20 May, having a magnitude of 6.1, while the second struck on the 29 May, achieving a magnitude of 5.8. Both earthquakes with their aftershocks have become known as ...

The Omega-Theory; A New Physics of Earthquakes Published by ELSEVIER: http://scitechconnect.elsevier.com/the-omega-theory-a-new-physics-of-earthquakes/ Earthquakes belong to those natural phenomena that can cause humanity the greatest harm. If we are not prepared for these extreme events they can ...

What is the Omega-Theory? The Omega-Theory is an all-new theory of the fundamental underlying physics of earthquakes and faulting processes in the Earth's crust. What are the main concepts of this theory? There are three main concepts of this theory that are used in the earthquake forecasting/p...

Elastic rebound theory and the Omega-sequences Introduction In the classical seismology, the elastic-rebound theory is an explanation of how energy is accumulated and then released from the rock during an earthquake. The model was formulated by Reid in 1910. Due to the slow and constant movement...
