Modeling of Fault Co-seismic Displacement Fields in Elastic Environments Based on Spherical Dislocation Theory

Authors

Abstract:

This research is based on the modeling of co-seismic deformations due to the fault movement in the elastic environments, and we can obtain the deformations generated in the faults. Here, modeling of the co-seismic displacement field is based on the analytical method with two spherical dislocation model and half-space dislocation model. The difference in displacement field from two spherical and half-space models, which is due to the spherical and flat view of the earth in two models has been investigated. Based on this modeling the sensitivity analysis of the difference between two spherical and semi-space models in the estimation of displacement field was compared to the geometric parameters of a simulated fault for a 100 kilometer longitudinal profile and we classified the effect of the fault parameters in the output results. According to the numerical results obtained from the sensitivity analysis are observed, the greatest effect of the slip rate parameter, followed by the depth of the fault, the dip angle, and the width and length of the fault parameters. These results mean that the greater the slip rate, depth, width, and length of the fault, or the Middle dip angle, the spherical model has better results than the semi-space model in the displacement field estimation.

Seismic Behavior of Direct Displacement-based Designed Eccentrically Braced Frames

Direct Displacement-Based Design (DDBD) is a performence-based seismic design method that has been proposed and well developed over the past two decades to design RC frame structures, shear walls and bridges. In this method, the behavior of a multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) sysytem is approximaeted by an equivalent single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) substitute structure. Although this method has be...

Modeling Sensor Reliability in Fault Diagnosis Based on Evidence Theory

Sensor data fusion plays an important role in fault diagnosis. Dempster-Shafer (D-R) evidence theory is widely used in fault diagnosis, since it is efficient to combine evidence from different sensors. However, under the situation where the evidence highly conflicts, it may obtain a counterintuitive result. To address the issue, a new method is proposed in this paper. Not only the statistic sen...

Displacement–Based Seismic Design of Structures

The concept of designing structures to achieve a specified performance limit state defined by strain or drift limits was first introduced, in New Zealand, in 1993. Over the following years, and in particular the past five years, an intense coordinated research effort has been underway in Europe and the USA to develop the concept to the stage where it is a viable and logical alternative to curre...

Displacement Fields Influence Analysis Caused by Dislocation Networks at a Three Layer System Interfaces on the Surface Topology

This work consists in a numerically evaluation of elastic fields distribution, caused by intrinsic dislocation networks placed at a nanometric trilayers interfaces, in order to estimate their influence on the surface topology during heterostructure operation. The organization of nanostructures is ensured by the knowledge of different elastic fields caused by buried dislocation networks and calc...
