Abstract The Eastern California shear zone is a complex set of dextral faults that accommodates significant plate motion and has produced large earthquakes. evolution this system why it consists closely spaced, irregular fail in multi‐fault ruptures are not well understood. Here we analyze the geometry, spatial distribution, Quaternary slip activity right‐lateral southern Mojave block. We find ...

The free-to-roll technique is used as a tool for predicting areas of uncommanded lateral motions. Recently, the NASA/Navy/Air Force Abrupt Wing Stall Program extended the use of this technique to the transonic speed regime. Using this technique, this paper evaluates various wing configurations on the pre-production F/A-18E aircraft and the Joint Strike Fighter (F-35) aircraft. The configuration...

the source parameters and focal depth of the destructive mw 6.5, 31 march. 2006 iran- silakhor earthquake, the two largest foreshocks and a major aftershock are determined using broadband data from a seismic network in iran based on a time-domain linear moment tensor inversion. the earthquakes occurred in the zagros suture zone in western iran. waveform inversion of the selected events estimate...

PURPOSE This retrospective study tests if runners who habitually forefoot strike have different rates of injury than runners who habitually rearfoot strike. METHODS We measured the strike characteristics of middle- and long-distance runners from a collegiate cross-country team and quantified their history of injury, including the incidence and rate of specific injuries, the severity of each i...

PURPOSE To determine prevalence of heel strike in a midsize city marathon, if there is an association between foot-strike classification and race performance, and if there is an association between foot-strike classification and gender. METHODS Foot-strike classification (forefoot, midfoot, heel, or split strike), gender, and rank (position in race) were recorded at the 8.1-km mark for 2112 r...

interferometric synthetic aperture radar (insar) technique is valuable tool in monitoring crustal deformation due to its large spatial coverage and high spatial resolutions. in this paper, the intersiesmic crustal deformation occurred before earthquake on august 2012 in ahar-varzegan located in north-west of iran is studied using persistent scattering interferometry. the psi algorithm used in t...

Although all fishes have a mechanosensory lateral line system – a system of water flow detectors (neuromasts) in canals or free on the skin's surface – particular behavioral functions are documented for only a few species. Work on lateral line use for feeding has focused on either cavefishes or night-active species (Montgomery, 1989). While surface-feeding fishes with well-developed eyes do use...

Abstract An earthquake sequence in the Storfjorden offshore area southwest of Spitsbergen Svalbard archipelago initiated with a 21 February 2008 magnitude Mw 6.1 event. This had previously not produced any significant earthquakes, but between and 2020, total ?2800 earthquakes were detected, ?16 them being moderate size (ML?4.0). Applying double-difference relocation to improve relative location...

The geometry of faults is usually thought to be more complicated at the surface than at depth and to control the initiation, propagation and arrest of seismic ruptures1–6. The fault system that runs from southern California into Mexico is a simple strike-slip boundary: the west side of California and Mexico moves northwards with respect to the east. However, the Mw 7.2 2010 El Mayor–Cucapah ear...
