Slab detachment under the Eastern Alps seen by seismic anisotropy
We analyze seismic anisotropy for the Eastern Alpine region by inspecting shear-wave splitting from SKS and SKKS phases. The Eastern Alpine region is characterized by a breakdown of the clear mountain-chain-parallel fast orientation pattern that has been previously documented for the Western Alps and for the western part of the Eastern Alps. The main interest of this paper is a more detailed an...
متن کاملLaboratory-derived Friction Laws and Their Application to Seismic Faulting
This paper reviews rock friction and the frictional properties of earthquake faults. The basis for rateand state-dependent friction laws is reviewed. The friction state variable is discussed, including its interpretation as a measure of average asperity contact time and porosity within granular fault gouge. Data are summarized showing that friction evolves even during truly stationary contact, ...
متن کاملImaging the Deep Seismic Structure Beneath a Mid-Ocean Ridge: The MELT Experiment
The Mantle Electromagnetic and Tomography (MELT ) Experiment was designed to distinguish between competing models of magma generation beneath mid-ocean ridges. Seismological observations demonstrate that basaltic melt is present beneath the East Pacific Rise spreading center in a broad region several hundred kilometers across and extending to depths greater than 100 kilometers, not just in a na...

متن کاملFuzzy Control of Seismic Structure with an Active Mass Damper
Fuzzy theory is highly promising for active structural control. The advantage of fuzzy controllers over classical controllers is the limited number of measured structural responses used to implement the control rules and its intrinsic robustness. In this paper, Fuzzy rules were generated firstly by learning from sample data obtained from the performance of the system under optimal control algor...
