Fast multiple inversion for stress analysis from fault-slip data

The multiple inverse method is widely used to invert multiple stress tensors from fault-slip data caused by polyphase tectonics. A practical problem of the method is the time-consuming computation related to its iterative procedure. This paper describes a way of accelerating the computation by replacing an exhaustive grid search for the optimal stress tensor by direct calculation using an analy...

Analysis of Scarp Profiles: Evaluation of Errors in Morphologic Dating

Morphologic analysis of scarp degradation can be used quantitatively to determine relative ages of different scarps formed in cohesionless materials, under the same climatic conditions. Scarps of tectonic origin as well as wavecut or rivercut terraces can be treated as topographic impulses that are attenuated by surface erosional processes. This morphological evolution can be modelled as the CQ...

A Comprehensive Mathematical Model for Analysis of WR-Resolvers under Stator Short Circuit Fault

Wound-Rotor (WR) resolvers are the most widely used position sensors in applications with harsh environmental conditions. However, their performance is exposed to failure due to the high risk of short circuit (SC) fault. Although the output current of the resolver is negligible, its thin copper wires increase the probability of the short circuit fault. To avoid the propagation of the turn-to-tu...

A Symmetry-based Method for Kinematic Analysis of Large-slip Brittle Fault Zones

We apply a symmetry-based, statistical method for kine­ matic analysis of mesoscale fault-zone structures to resolve the trans­ port directions for the Rosario fault zone and Lopez StructuralCom­ plex in the San Juan Islands. Both moderately dipping fault zones accommodated large amounts of Late Cretaceous slip ( > 30 km), but the transport direction of nappes overlying these fault zones is con...

Short Communication: TopoToolbox 2 – MATLAB-based software for topographic analysis and modeling in Earth surface sciences

TopoToolbox is a MATLAB program for the analysis of digital elevation models (DEMs). With the release of version 2, the software adopts an object-oriented programming (OOP) approach to work with gridded DEMs and derived data such as flow directions and stream networks. The introduction of a novel technique to store flow directions as topologically ordered vectors of indices enables calculation ...
