in current paper, geometrical relationship between the longitudinal faults of a zone of the folded zagros, surrounding asef mountains (north of shiraz) that follow the northwest-southeast structural trend (eg. zarghan, katah and sadra faults) has been studied. a western and southern zone of zagros mountain chain called folded zagros has a length of about 1375 km and a width between 120 and 250 ...

Byzantine fault is a cumulative term given to the set of both permanent and transient faults caused in circuits which effectively present themselves as different errors at different nodes in the same circuit. Such faults have become significant with the shrinkage in node (process) technology with process variations, radiation strikes and quantummechanical effects being majorly responsible for c...

Earthquake faults occur in interacting networks having emergent space-time modes of behavior not displayed by isolated faults. Using simulations of the major faults in southern California, we find that the physics depends on the elastic interactions among the faults defined by network topology, as well as on the nonlinear physics of stress dissipation arising from friction on the faults. Our re...

Some faults in storage elements (SEs) do not manifest as stuck-at0/1 faults. These include data-feedthrough faults that cause the SE cell to exhibit combinational behaviour. The authors investigate the implications of such faults on the behaviour of circuits using unclocked SEs. It is shown that effects of data-feedthrough faults at the behavioural level are different from those due to stuck-at...

Static random-access memories (SRAMs) exhibit faults that are electrical in nature. Functional and electrical testing are performed to diagnose faulty operation. These tests are usually designed from simple fault models that describe the chip interface behavior without a thorough analysis of the chip layout and technology. However, there are certain technology and layout-related defects that ar...

Mashhad Plain affects by a series of active faults in the northern margin of the Binalud and the southern margin of the Kopet-Dagh mountain ranges. The activity of these faults forms the morphology of the stepped bedrock of the Plain. In addition, the faults’ activities in the Quaternary period are the main effective parameters in thickness and texture of aquifer deposits in Mashhad Plain. In t...

in this study, the development of structural elements and the relationship between these elements and dikes emplacements investigated by the field surveys and analysis of satellite images of the east dasht-e bayaz fault zone. in this area nnw-sse (t2) and nw-se trending dikes are which follow the fractures of the region. we measured geometric characters of dikes (such as thickness, attitude, di...
