Fault Rupture Propagation through Sand: Finite-Element Analysis and Validation through Centrifuge Experiments
The three notorious earthquakes of 1999 in Turkey Kocaeli and Düzce and Taiwan Chi-Chi , having offered numerous examples of surface fault rupturing underneath civil engineering structures, prompted increased interest in the subject. This paper develops a nonlinear finite-element methodology to study dip–slip “normal” and “reverse” fault rupture propagation through sand. The procedure is verifi...
متن کاملCentrifuge Modeling of Fault Propagation through Alluvial Soils
Introduction. The behavior of alluvial deposits this machine is illustrated in Figure 1. It subjected to fault movements in the underlying has been employed in a number of investigations to bedrock is of major concern for critical structures date, including piles (Scott eta!., 1977; Scott, located within fault zones. An understanding of 1979), ocean floor anchors (Tagaya et al., 1977), fault pr...
متن کاملModeling of Wave Propagation through Soft Electrically Tunable Metamaterials
In this paper, we present our numerical simulation capability, developed within the Abaqus/Standard environment, for modeling steady-state wave propagation through soft dielectric elastomer composites. Specifically, we will discuss (a) a nonlinear user-element subroutine (UEL) to simulate the coupled electric-displacement response of these soft materials, (b) a user MPC subroutine to enforce co...
متن کاملSoft-Error Detection through Software Fault-Tolerance Techniques
The paper describes a systematic approach for automatically introducing data and code redundancy into an existing program written using a high-level language. The transformations aim at making the program able to detect most of the soft-errors affecting data and code, independently of the Error Detection Mechanisms (EDMs) possibly implemented by the hardware. Since the transformations can be au...
متن کاملLarge‐displacement, hydrothermal frictional properties of DFDP‐1 fault rocks, Alpine Fault, New Zealand: Implications for deep rupture propagation
The Alpine Fault, New Zealand, is a major plate-bounding fault that accommodates 65-75% of the total relative motion between the Australian and Pacific plates. Here we present data on the hydrothermal frictional properties of Alpine Fault rocks that surround the principal slip zones (PSZ) of the Alpine Fault and those comprising the PSZ itself. The samples were retrieved from relatively shallow...
