current research in order to identify neo tectonic activity of the ziyarat basin has been made on the northern slopes of the eastern alborz in south-gorgan and using the index of morpho tectonic and tectonic evidence in the area. in this regard, the 6 morphological parameters were calculated and the results are analyzed. the overall results of these features, as indicators of the relative activ...

For a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with actuator faults, robust active fault-tolerant control is investigated based on the adaptive observer, feedback linearization, and backstepping design theory. Time-varying faults and bounded uncertainty are simultaneously considered in the paper. An adaptive observer is firstly constructed to estimate the faults and then a backstepping-based active...

a doublet of earthquakes with magnitudes of 6.5 and 6.2 in mw scale (global cmt) on 2010 december 20 and 2011 january 27 respectively struck the area that lies between the nehbandan and jiroft fault systems, southeast of iran. these earthquakes occurred in correspondence of the southwestern termination of the kahourak right lateral strike slip fault. the focal mechanisms of both the mainshocks ...

In this paper, we present some of the fault tolerance management mechanisms being implemented in the Multi-μ architecture, namely its support for replica non-determinism. In this architecture, fault tolerance is achieved by node active replication, with software based replica management and fault tolerance transparent algorithms. A software layer implemented between the application and the real...

This paper develops a fault detection and isolation (FDI) and active fault tolerant control (FTC) of pitch actuators in wind turbines (WTs). This is accomplished combining a disturbance compensator with a controller, both of which are formulated in the discrete-time domain. The disturbance compensator has a dual purpose: to reconstruct the actuator fault (which is used by the FDI technique) and...
