[1] The northern Longitudinal Valley fault in eastern Taiwan creeps at the surface with a small rate of 1 cm/yr but slips in large earthquakes. To improve seismic hazard assessment, it is important to comprehend the slip deficit rate distribution at depth. We discovered 25 ML 2.1– 4.6 repeating earthquakes in this area and inverted GPS measurements for producing an image of the along-strike spa...

different methods for detecting broken bars in induction motors can be found in literature. many of these methods are based on evaluating special frequency magnitudes in machine signals spectrums. current, power, flux, etc are among these signals. frequencies related to broken rotor fault depend on slip. in industrial environment due to some phenomena - such as load oscillation, other faults an...

6 [1] The absolute value of stress on a fault during slip is a critical unknown quantity in 7 earthquake physics. One of the reasons for the uncertainty is a lack of geological 8 constraints in real faults. Here we calculate the slip rate and stress on an ancient fault 9 in a new way based on rocks preserved in an unusual exposure. The study area consists of 10 a fault core on Kodiak Island tha...

We estimate the critical slip-weakening distance on earthquake faults by using a new approach, which is independent of the estimate of fracture energy or radiated seismic energy. The approach is to find a physically based relation between the breakdown time of shear stress Tb, the time of peak slip-velocity Tpv, and the slip-weakening distance Dc, from the time histories of shear stress, slip, ...

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 nnw-trending dena fault, with 140 km length, cuts the major structures of zagros fold-thrust belt in borujen region. the fault has divided the region in two zones, in which different structural, andmorphological features as well assedimentation and seismtectonic characteristics have developed. this study presents a new interpretation for the kinematics of dena fault based on field evidence....

During the great 3 May 1887 Sonoran earthquake (surface rupture end-to-end length: 101.8 km; MW = 7.5±0.3), an array of three north-south striking Basin and Range Province faults (from north to south Pitáycachi, Teras, and Otates) snapped along the western margin of the Sierra Madre Occidental plateau. My detailed fi eld survey of the Teras fault and the 1887 earthquake rupture zone along this ...

A pair of significant earthquakes occurred on conjugate faults in the western Imperial Valley involving the through-going Superstition Hills fault and the Elmore Ranch cross fault. The first event was located on the Elmore Ranch fault, Ms = 6.2, and the larger event on the Superstition Hills fault, Ms = 6.6. The latter event is seen as a doublet teleseismically with the amplitudes in the ratio ...
