Computational Challenges in Seismology
Seismology and engineering seismology have been dramatically affected by the emergence of high-performance computing. A recent report by the National Research Council's Committee on Seismology (NRC, 1996) is entirely devoted to surveying the status and potential of high-performance computing activities in this field. Here we summarize several applications and focus on one particular problem, th...
متن کاملMathematical Questions in Seismology
Seismologists, like mathematicians, are accustomed to dividing their subject into a pure and an applied branch. The desirability of such division is underlined by the manner in which non-seismologists frequently approach the subject. I t is too often taken for granted that, because an earthquake is a motion of the ground, seismology must be chiefly concerned with the detailed analysis of that m...
متن کاملA New Multi-camera Approach for Lane Departure Warning
In this paper, we present a new multi camera approach to Lane Departure Warning (LDW). Upon acquisition, the captured images are transformed to a bird’s-eye view using a modified perspective removal transformation. Then, camera calibration is used to accurately determine the position of the two cameras relative to a reference point. Lane detection is performed on the front and rear camera image...
متن کاملSatellite Remote Sensing in Seismology. A Review
A wide range of satellite methods is applied now in seismology. The first applications of satellite data for earthquake exploration were initiated in the ‘70s, when active faults were mapped on satellite images. It was a pure and simple extrapolation of airphoto geological interpretation methods into space. The modern embodiment of this method is alignment analysis. Time series of alignments on...
متن کاملGPS seismology
GPS seismology uses convential geodetic models to analyze GPS data at high sampling rates, such as 1 Hz. GPS seismology results are shown for the Denali, San Simeon, Tokachi-oki, and Chuetsu earthquakes. Records for these earthquakes indicate that GPS is an excellent instrument for measuring large displacements near earthquake ruptures. GPS systems can be improved for seismic applications if th...
