the doruneh fault is one of the longest and most prominent faults in iran. however, only two recorded historical earthquakes with magnitudes more than 7 might be related to this fault. for getting more information on this fault more investigation in different fields are required. fault displacement is one of the most important parameters needed to explore the fault activity. in this study, with...

This paper presents an approach for data-driven design of fault diagnosis system. The proposed fault diagnosis scheme consists of an adaptive residual generator and a bank of isolation observers, whose parameters are directly identified from the process data without identification of complete process model. To deal with normal variations in the process, the parameters of residual generator are ...

Recently the wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networks are becoming prevalent for telecommunication networks. However, even a very short disruption of service caused by network faults may lead to high data loss in such networks due to the high date rates, increased wavelength numbers and density. Therefore, the network survivability is critical and has been intensively studied, where faul...

We discuss results associated with 2-D numerical simulations of in-plane dynamic ruptures on a fault governed by slip-weakening and rate-and-state friction laws with off-fault yielding. The onset of yielding is determined by aMohr–Coulomb-type criterion whereas the subsequent inelastic response is described by a Duvaut-Lions-type viscoplastic rheology. The study attempts to identify key paramet...

(paper pages 133-156) zagros active fold-thrust belt lies on the northern margin of the arabian continental crust it is a young fold-thrust mountain belt currently shortening, thickening and uplifting as a result of the collision of the arabian and iranian plates. rethickening of crust during collisional orogenies could have been carried out by reversal of fault motion along the mesozoic normal...

the nnw-trending dena fault, with 140 km length, cuts the major structures of zagros fold-thrust belt in borujen region. the fault has divided the region in two zones, in which different structural, andmorphological features as well assedimentation and seismtectonic characteristics have developed. this study presents a new interpretation for the kinematics of dena fault based on field evidence....

Quantum low-density parity check (LDPC) codes such as generalized toric codes with finite rate suggested by Tillich and Zémor offer an alternative route for quantum computation. Here, we study LDPC codes and show that any family of LDPC codes, quantum or classical, where distance scales as a positive power of the block length, has a finite error threshold. Based on that, we conclude that quantu...

The ability of the electromagnetic flux measured in various locations of a 35-kW cage induction motor to provide useful information about faults was investigated. The usefulness of this monitoring parameter was assessed in comparison with some other electrical parameters used for fault detection, such as stator phase current and circulating currents between the parallel branches of the stator w...

We incorporate shear strain localization into spontaneous elastodynamic rupture simulations using a Shear Transformation Zone (STZ) friction law. In the STZ model, plastic strain in the granular fault gouge occurs in local regions called STZs. The number density of STZs is governed by an effective disorder temperature, and regions with elevated effective temperature have an increased strain rat...
