Varying estimates of both present-day strain accumulation and long-term slip rate on the Doruneh left-lateral strike-slip fault, NE Iran, have led to suggestions that it exhibits large along-strike and/or temporal changes in activity. In this study, we make compare measured using geodesy geomorphology, spanning time periods ranging from decadal 100 ka. To image strain, process 7 years (2003–201...

FOF1-ATP synthase converts two energetic "currencies" of the cell (ATP and protonmotive force, pmf) by coupling two rotary motors/generators. Their coupling efficiency is usually very high. Uncoupled proton leakage (slip) has only been observed in chloroplast enzyme at unphysiologically low nucleotide concentration. We investigated the properties of proton slip in chromatophores (sub-bacterial ...

We study deep aseismic slip along the central section of the San Jacinto Fault, near the Anza Seismic Gap, in southern California. Elevated strain-rates following the remote Mw7.2 April 4, 2010 El Mayor-Cucapah and the local Mw5.4, July 7, 2010 Collins Valley earthquakes were recorded by Plate Boundary Observatory borehole strain-meters near Anza, and were accompanied by vigorous aftershock seq...

Absrruct-The problem of absolute phase tracking and the development of the properties of an optimal estimator of absolute phase are considered. Using Monte Carlo simulation, this estimator’s performance is compared with that of the phase-locked loop on the basis of slip distribution growth rate. Further slip prediction is considered and a statistic, based on the entropy of the conditional distr...

A mathematical model is developed to study the MHD oscillatory blood flow through stenosed artery under the effect of slip velocity. The blood is assumed to be Newtonian. Analytical expressions for velocity profile, flow rate, wall shear stress and resistive impedance have been obtained. These expressions are computed numerically and the computational results are presented graphically. It is no...

The doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) is widely used in variable speed wind energy conversion systems (WECS). This paper presents a review on various topologies, configuration, power converters and control schemes used with the operation of the DFIG. The operation of DFIG based on both slip ring and brushless arrangement has been discussed. The grid integration of DFIG and its influence on ...

This paper describes an experiment eliciting spoonerisms by using the so-called SLIP technique. The purpose of the experiment was to provide a further test of the hypothesis that self-monitoring of inner speech is a major source of lexical bias ([1; 10; 11; 14]. This is a follow-up on an earlier experiment in which subjects were explicitly prompted after each response to make a correction in ca...

In recent years, there has been considerable interest in investigating the effects of fretting, a common problem of significant practical importance that can affect a wide range of electrical equipment incurring costly component replacement and expensive equipment downtime. Fretting is defined as accelerated surface damage occurring at the interface of contacting materials subjected to small os...

this paper addresses the combined effects of couple stresses, thermal radiation, viscous dissipation and slip condition on a free convective flow of a couple stress fluid induced by a vertical stretching sheet. the cogley- vincenti-gilles equilibrium model is employed to include the effects of thermal radiation in the study. the governing boundary layer equations are transformed into a system o...
