Abstract Oceanic Transform Faults are one of manifestations the three major plate boundaries and a key tectonic feature oceanic crust. They broadly considered to accommodate strike‐slip displacement along simple vertical faults be largely without magmatic addition. We present first observations from broadband 3D seismic buried, Cretaceous‐aged transform in Gulf Guinea with complex internal arch...

The DC electropolishing process has been applied to the sharpening of tungsten wires in 2 M KOH aqueous solution. Necking of tungsten anodes takes place in the vicinity of the electrolyte-air interface. This results in the creation of two separate wire parts with nanosharp tips. Using image analysis, we demonstrate that the products of electrochemical reactions on the wire surface form a film w...

In cluster-based image segmentation techniques, clusters may be viewed as hills in a histogram. These techniques may suffer from large hills that dominate the smaller hills and thus they result in a loss of image details in the segmentation process. In this paper, we propose a novel approach, called Hill-Manipulation algorithm, to solve the problems of the traditional cluster-based image segmen...
