Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Seismology
  • Thermodynamics

His main research concerns Seismology, Slip, Stress, Fault and Aftershock. His Seismology study frequently links to related topics such as Geophysics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Fracture mechanics, Scaling and Geodesy in addition to Slip.

His research in Stress intersects with topics in Fluid dynamics, Magnitude and Magma chamber. His Fault research integrates issues from Induced seismicity and Stress field. His work deals with themes such as Seismotectonics, Focal mechanism and Crust, which intersect with Aftershock.

His most cited work include:

  • Aftershocks driven by a high-pressure CO2 source at depth. (575 citations)
  • Fault lubrication during earthquakes (537 citations)
  • The 1997 Umbria‐Marche, Italy, Earthquake Sequence: A first look at the main shocks and aftershocks (249 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in Seismology, Slip, Aftershock, Fault and Induced seismicity. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Stress, Magnitude and Geodesy. His study in Slip is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Shear and Fracture mechanics.

His Foreshock study, which is part of a larger body of work in Aftershock, is frequently linked to Coulomb, bridging the gap between disciplines. Massimo Cocco combines subjects such as Stress field, Geophysics and Sequence with his study of Fault. In general Induced seismicity, his work in Focal mechanism is often linked to Perturbation, Rate change and State dependent linking many areas of study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Seismology (65.24%)
  • Slip (28.05%)
  • Aftershock (19.51%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Seismology (65.24%)
  • Slip (28.05%)
  • L aquila (5.49%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Massimo Cocco mainly investigates Seismology, Slip, L aquila, Service provision and Fault. The concepts of his Seismology study are interwoven with issues in Geodetic datum and Geodesy. His Slip research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Normal fault and Shear.

His studies deal with areas such as Magnitude, Microseism and Extensional fault as well as Fault. His Earthquake rupture course of study focuses on Tsunami earthquake and Finite element method. Massimo Cocco has researched Seismic moment in several fields, including Aftershock, Structural geology, Scaling and Scale invariance.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Slip heterogeneity and directivity of the ML 6.0, 2016, Amatrice earthquake estimated with rapid finite‐fault inversion (107 citations)
  • Clues from joint inversion of tsunami and geodetic data of the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake (70 citations)
  • Complex fault geometry and rupture dynamics of the Mw 6.5, 2016, October 30th central Italy earthquake (58 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Statistics
  • Seismology
  • Thermodynamics

His primary areas of investigation include Seismology, Slip, Geodetic datum, Global Positioning System and Kinematic inversion. His work on Earthquake rupture and Induced seismicity is typically connected to Observatory and Exponential decay as part of general Seismology study, connecting several disciplines of science. Massimo Cocco interconnects Fault, Seismometer and Scaling in the investigation of issues within Slip.

His Geodetic datum research incorporates elements of Tsunami earthquake, Episodic tremor and slip, Finite element method and Seismic slip. His Global Positioning System research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Seafloor spreading, Submarine pipeline and Subduction. Massimo Cocco has included themes like Normal fault, Hypocenter, Ground shaking and Geodesy in his Kinematic inversion study.
