deformation pattern of the northeastern part of the iranian-arabian collision zone (i.e., mainly sanandaj-sirjan belt or zone) is the main concern of this paper. here, we investigate the stress distribution and displacement pattern of eghlid-deh bid area as affected by the position of zagros suture using a three dimensional mechanical model. the modeled area is located between the zagros thrust...

Existing methods for structural health monitoring pose a formidable challenge to real time implementation due to the significantly large computational loads. The proposed algorithm is suitable for online applications because it maintains good pattern recognition capabilities while possessing a computationally compact network topology. This study employs the computational efficiency of single la...

We demonstrate that observed contrasts of upper crustal structures across large continental strike-slip faults are sufficient to produce artificial vertical Moho offsets of several kilometers in studies using laterally homogenous models. This can have significant impact on efforts to understand how the observed surface displacement is accommodated in the deep crust. An existing hypothesis that ...

[1] The volcanic plains that fill the Caloris basin, the largest recognized impact basin on Mercury, are deformed by many graben and wrinkle ridges, among which the multitude of radial graben of Pantheon Fossae allow us to resolve variations in the depth extent of associated faulting. Displacement profiles and displacement-to-length scaling both indicate that faults near the basin center are co...

A double layer Green’s tensor for linear elasticity in half space is computed. Traction free conditions on the surface are imposed making this Green’s tensor relevant in geophysics for modeling displacements caused by slips on faults. Past attempts at computing related Green’s tensors are discussed. Applications to computing displacement fields by integration over fault regions or by use of asy...

s – Detection of minor faults in power transformer active part is essential because minor faults may develop and lead to major faults and finally irretrievable damages occur. Sweep Frequency Response Analysis (SFRA) is an effective low-voltage, off-line diagnostic tool used for finding out any possible winding displacement or mechanical deterioration inside the Transformer, due to large electro...

In this paper, an observer bank design for sensor fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant control schemes for wind turbines with hydrostatic transmissions are presented. The sensor faults are detected and isolated by several observers using different sensor signals. Starting from a detailed problem formulation that takes into account structured model uncertainties and external inputs, the sufficient...

Abstract The Datong region of China suffers from severe ground fissure (GF) disasters. Jichechang (JGF) is typical among the GFs in and most active. To provide scientific guidance for disaster mitigation, understanding mechanisms governing GF activity needs to be improved. Here, long-term monitoring data (> 10 years) JGF are used study characteristics its activity. results show that formatio...
