چکیده

one of the methods for the determination of focal mechanisms of earthquakes is the linear inversion of moment tensor in time domain. that method is used here for determining of the focal mechanisms the darbe astaneh silakhor earthquake of 31 march 2006 and two of its foreshocks and six aftershocks with local magnitude more than 4. the data of six broadband stations of the international institute of earthquake engineering (iiees) in epicentral distances less than 375 km are used. the focal mechanism obtained for the main shock is strike slip right lateral. the location of the main shock and the aftershocks and focal mechanisms show the doroud fault as the cause of the earthquake. the variations of focal mechanisms of six aftershocks primarily indicate the local change in faulting and secondly the location of the aftershock with mainly normal mechanism can suggest the activity of the qaleh hatam fault. in this paper the main focus is on the main shock. its centroid is obtained and the effect of frequency range in focal mechanism is studied by the inversion in nine small frequency bands and the optimum focal mechanism is found. rupture length is also calculated. the uncertainty analysis confirms the acquired solutions.

Weighted Automata – Theory and Applications Leipzig , March 27 – 31 , 2006

Quantum automata are, on one side, models of automata that go, in a natural way, beyond models of probabilistic automata and, on the other side, a natural way to get a deeper inside into the power of different quantum information processing features and phenomena. One can also say that, on one side, study of quantum automata is a natural way how to utilize further and sharpen techniques that ha...

focal mechanism determination of zarand dahyiue earthquake by amplitude spectra and polarity

using amplitude spectra and polarity (aspo) is a way for determining focal mechanisms of earthquakes. in the paper, the method has been used to determine the focal mechanism of zarand dahuiye earthquake dated 22 february 2005. the method uses frequency-wave number approach for calculating green functions and inverts full waveforms (from p arrival time up to the end of surface waves). at first s...
