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....

This paper presents the improvement of transient stability of a multi-machine power system with a STATCOM. Transient stability improvement is essential from the view point of maintaining system security that is the incidence of a fault should not lead to tripping of generating unit due to loss of synchronism. Static synchronous compensator is widely used in power system to control power by inje...

[1] The 23 October 2002 Nenana Mountain Earthquake (Mw 6.7) occurred on the Denali Fault (Alaska), to the west of the Mw 7.9 Denali Earthquake that ruptured the same fault 11 days later. We used 6 interferograms, constructed using radar images from the Canadian Radarsat-1 and European ERS-2 satellites, to determine the coseismic surface deformation and a source model. Data were acquired on asce...

let $g$ be a simple graph with vertex set $v(g) = {v_1, v_2,ldots, v_n}$ and edge set $e(g) = {e_1, e_2,ldots , e_m}$. similar tothe randi'c matrix, here we introduce the randi'c incidence matrixof a graph $g$, denoted by $i_r(g)$, which is defined as the$ntimes m$ matrix whose $(i, j)$-entry is $(d_i)^{-frac{1}{2}}$ if$v_i$ is incident to $e_j$ and $0$ otherwise. naturally, therandi'c incidenc...

Abstract Coseismic landslides are observed in higher concentrations around surface-rupturing faults. This observation has been attributed to a combination of stronger ground motions and increased rock mass damage closer Past work shown it is difficult separate the influences from strong on landslide occurrence. We measured coseismic off-fault deformation (OFD) zone widths (treating them as prox...

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...

(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 characteristics of near-fault ground motion are investigated considering heterogeneous slip distribution on the fault plane. Areas on the fault plane with large slip in compare with the average slip on the fault are known as asperity. The characteristics of strong ground motions in near-fault area are strongly affected by faulting parameters such as asperity location, maximum slip of asperi...
