As repeated slip events occur on a fault, energy is partly dissipated through rock fracturing and frictional processes in the fault zone radiated to surface as seismic energy. Numerous field studies have shown that core of intraplate faults wider average with increasing total displacement (and hence events). In this study we compile data thickness, internal structure (e.g., composition, host ju...

Abstract Lifelines, such as pipelines, roads, and tunnels, are critical infrastructure when crossing active tectonic faults, a reliable estimation of the fault displacement in case an earthquake is required. The first simplest approach to use empirical scaling relations compute design displacement, but this may result unknown level safety. Thus, probabilistic hazard analysis (PFDHA) appropriate...

Compressive and extensive horsetails are common structures on the lateral termination of brittle strike-slip faults, which forms within the shallow continental crust. Here we report another possibility, the lateral termination of a brittle strike-slip fault in a formation-parallel low-temperature ductile shear zone within sulphatic, gypsum-dominated evaporites. In the Southern Alps, over a dist...

microgrid presents an efficient and novel solution for integrating many new energy generating resources with traditional distribution networks. having an appropriate protective scheme is a fundamental challenge in achieving microgrid plans. it is proven that traditional protective plans are not efficient for protecting microgrid, since the network is dynamic and the level of fault current chang...

Abstract The Asmari reservoir in southwest Iran has been producing oil continuously for over 50 years. However, due to an essential pressure decline, the is now a potential candidate injection projects. geomechanical analysis successful operation enhance production and address possible challenges. An accurate estimation of necessary maintain optimal conditions during process reduce risks. In th...

The diagnosis of blade crack faults is critical to ensuring the safety turbomachinery. Blade tip timing (BTT) a non-contact vibration displacement measurement technique, which has been extensively studied for condition monitoring recently. fault methods based on deep learning can be summarized as studying internal logical relationship data, automatically mining features, and intelligently ident...

Nowadays, faults and failures are increasing especially in complex systems such as Network-on-Chip (NoC) based Systems-on-a-Chip due to the increasing susceptibility and decreasing feature sizes. On the other hand, fault-tolerant routing algorithms have an evident effect on tolerating permanent faults and improving the reliability of a Network-on-Chip based system. This paper presents reliabili...

Background: Voyager images of Europa showed evidence of both strike-slip displacement and dilation along cracks [1]. Galileo images confirmed that dila-tion has been common and widely distributed. Large crustal plates have separated, with the space between them filled by new surface material creating dilational bands. Similarly, new surface has also been created along strike-slip faults, where ...

abstract geosystems or geomorphic systems include terrain structure with processes interactions that work as alone or common and create a series of terrain unites. geosystem elements consist of lines, points, surfaces, and volumes. the ways of relationships between the elements form spatial structure identity. the elements prepare spaces for different land uses, when they are located in ratio t...

Understanding the response of faults to injection high-pressure fluids is important for several subsurface applications, example, geologic carbon sequestration or energy storage. Lab-based experiments suggest that fluid can activate fault slip and this lead increased transmission along low-permeability faults. Here we present in situ observations from a cross-borehole fluid-injection experiment...
