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....

We present an autonomy architecture called Fault Tolerant Remote Agent that integrates symbolic reasoning from AI planning/scheduling with physics-based fault-tolerant control. Application to spacecraft attitude management in the presence of diverse failure classes is studied. We first review fault tolerance in AI and control-theoretic contexts and introduce an architecture in which the capabil...

A fault-tolerant system tolerates internal failures while preserving desirable overall behavior. Fault tolerance is necessary in life-critical or inaccessible applications, and also enables the design of reliable systems out of uilreliable, less expensive components. This thesis discusses fault tolerance in dynamic systems, such as finite-state controllers or computer simulations, whose interna...

BIST is a technique aimed to: Avoiding the usage of expensive ATE Increase the fault tolerance since it add more access to the internal points Allow the application of at-speed test and reduce the test time. It is mandatory to consider the BIST as a test solution when the design flow and the design area can afford it.

Fault diagnosis of downhole traction robot has characteristics special mechanical structure, complicated working condition and lack research data. In this paper, a method fault analysis tractor hydraulic system based on model is presented. The failure mode mechanism key components in telescopic are analyzed. proposed the mathematical component. Based AMESim, established, single multi-fault simu...

In the paper the influence of the chosen sensors faults (rotor speed and stator current sensors) to the properties of vector controlled induction motor drive system are tested. Faults detection algorithms based on the simple signals from internal control structure are developed. The simulation tests carried out in Matlab/SimPowerSystem software. The proposed solution can be successfully applied...

The focus of the research presented here is on the automated assessment of sewer pipe conditions using a laserbased sensor. The proposed method involves image and data processing algorithms categorising signals acquired from the internal pipe surface. Fault identification is carried out using a neural network. Experimental results are presented.

[1] Deformed fluvial terraces preserved over active thrust-related folds record the kinematics of folding as fault slip accumulates on the underlying thrust. In the Mackenzie Basin of southern New Zealand, the kinematics revealed by folded fluvial terraces along the active Ostler and Irishman Creek fault zones are inconsistent with traditional models for thrust-related folding in which spatiall...
