Fabric induced weakness of tectonic faults

[1] Mature fault zones appear to be weaker than predicted by both theory and experiment. One explanation involves the presence of weak minerals, such as talc. However, talc is only a minor constituent of most fault zones and thus the question arises: what proportion of a weak mineral is needed to satisfy weak fault models? Existing studies of fault gouges indicate that >30% of the weak phase is...

investigation of thermal comfort properties of woven sport fabric using blend of estabragh fibers

امروزه لباس در نظر ورزشکاران و کسانی که برای اوقات فراغت خود و یا برای رسیدن به اندامی متعادل، ورزش می کنند؛ بسیار با اهمیت است. احساس مطلوب از لباس در زمره خصوصیات راحتی پوشش می باشد. خصوصیات انتقال رطوبت لباس، در ارزیابی راحتی حسی و حرارتی منسوجات تولید شده از آن ها بسیار مهم است. هدف از این تحقیق، معرفی پارچه جدید است که متشکل از الیاف استبرق با خواص منحصر به فرد می باشد. استبرق لیف طبیعی تو...

Seismic potential of weak, near-surface faults revealed at plate tectonic slip rates

The near-surface areas of major faults commonly contain weak, phyllosilicate minerals, which, based on laboratory friction measurements, are assumed to creep stably. However, it is now known that shallow faults can experience tens of meters of earthquake slip and also host slow and transient slip events. Laboratory experiments are generally performed at least two orders of magnitude faster than...

Water-induced fabric transitions in olivine.

The interpretation of seismic anisotropy in Earth's upper mantle has traditionally been based on the fabrics (lattice-preferred orientation) of relatively water-poor olivine. Here we show that when a large amount of water is added to olivine, the relation between flow geometry and seismic anisotropy undergoes marked changes. Some of the puzzling observations of seismic anisotropy in the upper m...

Discriminating Characteristics of Tectonic and Human‐Induced Seismicity

We analyze statistical features of background and clustered subpopulations of earthquakes in different regions in an effort to distinguish between human-induced and natural seismicity. Analysis of end-member areas known to be dominated by humaninduced earthquakes (The Geyser geothermal field in northern California and TauTona gold mine in South Africa) and regular tectonic activity (the San Jac...
