background: in radiotherapy, wedge filters are used for optimizing the tumor dose distribution in patients. the attenuation in beam intensity due to the presence of wedge filter is compensated by means of a wedge factor measured at the central axis of the beam. the field size, depth and ssd dependence of wedge factor have been assessed for 9mv radiations of neptun pc linear accelerator. materia...

Abstract The Sinu fold belt, located in northwestern Colombia, is the southwesternmost part of South Caribbean Deformed Belt, which has been interpreted as an accretionary wedge resulting from subduction Plate under American Plate. geological interpretation 2D seismic surveys and bathymetric maps, with aid a few exploration wells, basis to construct structural map several sections illustrate of...

Our research focuses on the reconstruction of turbidity paleocurrents Cilento Group in area (southern Apennines, Italy). These deposits were formed wedge-top basin above oceanic Ligurian Accretionary Complex, early orogenic wedge southern Apennines. The succession, whose age ranges between uppermost Burdigalian and lowermost Tortonian, consists a thick pile sandstones, conglomerates, marls peli...

The Nankai Trough, Japan, is a subduction zone characterized by the recurrence of disastrous earthquakes and tsunamis. Slow associated tremor also occur intermittently locally in Trough causal relationship between slow large important to understanding dynamics. off Muroto, Shikoku Island, near southeast margin rupture segment 1946 earthquake, one three regions where cluster Trough. On Philippin...
