In this paper, a tight coupling between computer vision and parallel robotics is exhibited through the projective line geometry. Indeed, contrary to the usual methodology where the robot is modeled independently from the control law which will be implemented, we take into account, since the early modeling stage, that vision will be used for control. Hence, kinematic modeling and projective geom...

Earthquake faulting at ~600 km depth remains puzzling. Here we present a new kinematic interpretation of two Mw7.6 earthquakes of November 24, 2015. In contrast to teleseismic analysis of this doublet, we use regional seismic data providing robust two-point source models, further validated by regional back-projection and rupture-stop analysis. The doublet represents segmented rupture of a ∼30-y...

objectives: the aim of this study was to extract suitable spatiotemporal and kinematic parameters to determine how total knee replacement (tkr) alters patients’ knee kinematics during gait, using a rapid and simplified quantitative two-dimensional gait analysis procedure. methods: two-dimensional kinematic gait pattern of 10 participants were collected before and after the tkr surgery, using a ...

The near-source energy released on a fault is estimated through the strain energy change and the fracture energy from the results of kinematic waveform inversion and dynamic modeling for two different types of earthquakes: a shallow crustal earthquake, the 2000 Tottori, Japan (Mw 6.6) earthquake, and an in-slab event, the 1999 Oaxaca, Mexico (Mw 7.5) earthquake. The procedure incorporates the s...

Although large earthquakes in continental interiors are much less frequent than those along plate boundaries, they have been responsible for a disproportionate amount of destruction. I present a testable model for strain accumulation and seismicity in the upper crust of continental interiors. Intersecting faults provide a focus for strain build-up, resulting in local pockets of high strain accu...

Abstract. Uncertainties of geological structural geometry constructed based on seismic reflections can stem from data acquisition, processing, analysis, or interpretation. arising interpretations and subsequent estimates slip have been particularly less quantified discussed. To illustrate the implications interpretation uncertainties for potential evolution, I use an example a shear fault-bend ...

The evolution of oroclines is often driven by the interplay subduction and indentation associated with complex patterns deformation transfer from shortening to strike-slip extension. We study kinematics mechanics in an orocline a backarc-convex geometry, European Carpatho-Balkanides Mountains. Within this orocline, kinematic Serbian Carpathians segment less understood. results demonstrate that ...

The opposite-sense fault block rotation across the continental strike-slip faulting plays an important role in accommodating crustal deformation north of East Iran orogen. This research constrains post-Neogene kinematics NW-SE to E-W left-lateral transpressional zones at northern termination N-S striking right-lateral Neh system Using two case studies, we analyzed Birjand splay and Shekarab tra...
