Surface movement and deformation with fault differ significantly from that without fault. To explore the mechanism of abnormal surface subsidence induced by instability, mechanical model for slip soil cantilever were separately established when mining in hanging wall footwall. Moreover, based on numerical similarity simulation experiment, difficulty instability was compared analysed. The result...

[1] We discuss numerical simulations of evolving fault zone structures in a 3-D lithospheric model with a seismogenic crust governed by a damage rheology that accounts for large strain associated with permanent brittle deformation. Results for the initial propagation of an existing narrow damage zone subjected to oblique loading exhibit strong asymmetry of the evolving damage with respect to th...

The paper reviews models for inelastic deformation processes preceding earthquake rupture in brittle, natural rock masses. The discussion is organized around three types of failure models: (i) localization bifurcations, whereby a uniform or nearly uniform pattern of deformation gives way to highly localized deformations within a fault zone; (ii) non-homogeneous deformations due to an inclusion-...

Technical Abstract We determined orientations of principal stresses around the San Andreas Fault (SAF) system in the greater San Francisco Bay Area and regions further north along the strike-slip plate boundary. Stress orientations, as well as a ratio between stress magnitudes, were determined by inversions of approximately 6000 earthquake fault plane solutions, divided into ~100 groups based o...

The theory of coalbed methane distribution controlled by tectonism is a hot issue in the field geofluid-geotectonic interaction research. Taking geological structure scale range 1302 working face Guojiahe wellfield Yonglong mining area as background, this paper focuses on basic research problem influence control coal reservoir gas content and uses THM coupling model to analyze change characteri...

A sinusoidal dependence of the sand p-polarized terahertz (THz) emission on sample rotation angle in mand a-plane InN has been observed using ultrafast pulse excitation at a moderate pump fluence of 1 J/cm. The angular dependence is attributed to carrier drift in an intrinsic in-plane electric field parallel to the c-axis induced by stacking fault-terminated internal polarization at wurtzite do...

To provide high availability and fault-tolerance, SDN control planes should be distributed. However, distributed control planes are challenging to design and bootstrap, especially if this is done in-band, without a dedicated control network, and without relying on legacy protocols. We present Medieval, a plug & play, distributed control plane that supports automatic topology discovery and manag...

This paper describes initial results of a project developing fault tolerant control systems for critical aircraft systems and focuses on the early detection of faulty components. The main goal is to present the use of signal processing techniques to analyze sensor information and data-mine changes that could be attributable to faulty behavior. The approach compares well with residual-based tech...

The aim of this thesis is to study communication algorithms in networks where nodes and/or communication links fail in a random dependent way. In order to capture fault dependencies, we introduce the neighborhood fault, ranged fault, and swamping communication models. In the neighborhood fault model for arbitrary networks, damaging events, called spots, occur randomly and independently with pro...
