Active deformation in Alborz range is due to N-S convergence between Arabia and Eurasia. This paper provides geomorphic traces of regional deformation in NW Iran in order to characterize active faulting on major faults. Soltanieh and North Zanjan fault systems are involved in convergence boundary extent between South Caspian Basin and Central Iran. Soltanieh and North Zanjan faults are major re...

The image logs interpretation from two wells in a fold hosting a west Iranian oil field located in the Dezful Embayment, SW Iran reveal the occurrence of two major systems of natural fractures. In the central part of the fold, the fold-related fractures include two sets of fractures trending N53°E and N34°E. In the eastern and also curved part of the fold, the strike of open fractures varies fr...

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) comprise a novel class of scientifically and technologically interesting materials. Among these, equatomic CrMnFeCoNi with the face-centered cubic (FCC) structure is noteworthy because its ductility and strength increase with decreasing temperature while maintaining outstanding fracture toughness at cryogenic temperatures. Here we report for the first time by single-c...

superconductor fault current limiter (sfcl) is an effective device to suppress high fault currents. this paper presents a comparative study of resistive and inductive fault current limiters from transient stability point of view.  appropriate location and type of the limiters in a hv substation is selected by a qualitative approach based on the equal area criterion. study system is simulated by...

the present study was an attempt to assess religious orientation and life satisfaction as well as to find out relationship of religious orientation with life satisfaction among university students. university students were also compared on religious orientation and life satisfaction with respect to their gender. the data for the present study was obtained from university students [n=200 (males ...

Abstract Subsurface stress conditions evolve in response to earthquakes or fluid injection. Using observations of an induced seismicity sequence from a dense local array, anisotropy analysis is employed characterize changes around fault. The dataset comprises high signal-to-noise ratio S-wave data 300 events, ranging magnitude −0.45 4.1, recorded on 98 three-component geophones cemented shallow...

On 12 June 2021, an earthquake with MS 5.0 occurred in Yingjiang, adjacent to eastern Myanmar, where seismic activity is frequent due plate collision. To explore the mechanism of this earthquake, regional stress field Yingjiang zone was inverted using focal mechanisms 187 historical earthquakes area. Furthermore, based on obtained orientation principal axes and shape ratio, fault slip tendency ...

This paper presents a novel fault location method for series compensated transmission lines. It is established based on synchronized voltages sampling and Thevenin impedance from both ends of series compensated transmission line. The method is based on the use of phasor measurement units (PMU) technology which is aimed to be independent of current measurements, fault type, fault resistance, fau...
