due to their inherent sensitivity to resistivity contrast, em methods have an important role in detection of fault zones. in this paper, we experienced controlled source tensor magnetotelluric (cstmt) method to recognize a fault zone in bam area. an earthquake devastated the town of bam on 26 december 2003. surface displacements reveal that over 2 m of slip occurred at depth on a fault that had...

this paper presents a method for diagnosis of eccentricity fault in a switched-reluctance motor (srm) during offline and standstill modes. in this method, the fault signature is differential induced voltage (div) achieved by injecting diagnostic pulses to the motor windings. it will be demonstrated by means of results that there is a correlation between differential induced voltage and eccentri...

Abstract General faults in regular electrical railways system could be detect by implementing the specific protection functions such as ground fault or sensitive earth fault. Otherwise, in ungrounded electrical railway systems which using both feeding and return contact rail at the same time, fault detection cannot done with above-mentioned function. Due to recent growth in electrical railway ...

An intelligent strategy for the protection of AC microgrids is presented in this paper. This method was halving to an initial signal processing step and a machine learning-based forecasting step. The initial stage investigates currents and voltages with a window-based approach based on the dynamic decomposition method (DDM) and then involves the norms of the signals to the resultant DDM data. T...

The lateral sealing ability of a normal fault is a major factor in creating hydrocarbon traps. Therefore, a methodology for assessing the sealing ability of faults in the siliciclastic sequences of subsidence basins has been established; moreover, by using this methodology, the uncertainty inherent in hydrocarbon exploration can be decreased. Moreover, the petrophysical properties of fault roc...

in this study, the development of structural elements and the relationship between these elements and dikes emplacements investigated by the field surveys and analysis of satellite images of the east dasht-e bayaz fault zone. in this area nnw-sse (t2) and nw-se trending dikes are which follow the fractures of the region. we measured geometric characters of dikes (such as thickness, attitude, di...

the nw-se trending tus fault is one of the active faults in the north-east of iran . geomorphologic evidences indicate that this fault is active and goes through mashhad city from near tus town. since the population and number of pilgrims in this city are high, the study of the tus fault is of great importance. hence, we have carried out a new investigation to evaluate the hazardous potential o...

Low stacking fault energy face centered cubic (FCC) materials contain characteristic defect structures. Stacking fault tetrahedral are one of those rare structures that occur under special experimental conditions. For the first time, stacking fault tetrahedral were observed in Fe-30Mn-3Al-3Si twinning induced plasticity (TWIP) steel. Their presence resulted from a quenching heat treatment.
