Deep earthquakes mainly concentrate between 12°N and 14°N, the concentrated region is divided into different sections, and the focal depth is gradually deep from the north to the south. From the focal mechanism solution data, the maximum principal stress direction (P axis) varies from the northern region of Philippine fault to the southern region of the fault. In the north P axes directions are mainly NW, however in the south there is the complex displaying and P axes have NW, NE and approximately NS directions. These results show the characteristics of press-thrust in the northern region of the Philippine fault and the clockwise rotation in the southern region of the fault. The stress caused by the Philippine plate, which moved upon the South China Sea sub-plate, is adjusted by the oblique subduction of the Manila trench, the sinistral strike-slip of the Philippine fault and the sinistral strike-slip of the Mindoro fault.展开更多

Herein, we introduce the CatMath—an online platform for generating a variety of common and industrially important thermal + electrocatalysis. With the CatMath, users can request the volcano models for available reactions and analyze their materials of interests as potential catalysts. Besides, the CatMath provides the function of the online generation of Surface Pourbaix Diagram for surface state analysis under electrocatalytic conditions, which is an essential step before analyzing the activity of an electrocatalytic surface.
