kuhbanan fault system, as one of the intracontinental faults of central iran, is recognized by considerable seismogenic activities and modern morphotectonics evidences with a strike-slip (reverse component) motion. according to the geometric and kinematics data, kuhbanan fault has been divided into 5 segments (s26, s27, s28, s29, s30) in bahabad region. measured geomorphic indices of ratio of v...

Subject review The developmental tendencies of cumulative displacement time series associated with reservoir landslides influenced by large water reservoirs must be effectively predicted. However, traditional methods do not encompass the dynamic response relationships between landslide deformation and its influencing factors. Therefore, a new approach based on the exponential smoothing (ES) and...

BACKGROUND Evaluation of short-term mortality displacement is essential to accurately estimate the impact of short-term air pollution exposure on public health. OBJECTIVES We quantified mortality displacement by estimating single-day lag effects and cumulative effects of air pollutants on mortality using distributed lag models. METHODS We performed a daily time series of nonaccidental and c...

An analytical formalism for the solution of cumulative beam breakup in linear accelerators with arbitrary beam current profile is developed. It is applied to obtain an expression for the transverse displacement of trains of finite bunches. The same formalism is used to investigate the beam breakup-enhanced displacement of beams caused by the misalignment of the deflecting structures or focusing...

Four experiments are reported that investigated the role of the perceived coplanarity of a moving target with respect to a frame of reference in the third dimension on the perceived path of that target. When a target dot and small moving frame appeared coplanar, the dot's perceived trajectory was governed entirely by its changing position relative to the moving frame. However, when the target a...

BACKGROUND Understanding the biomechanics of spinal manipulative therapy requires knowing how loads are transmitted to deeper structures. This investigation monitored displacement at sequential depths in thoracic paraspinal tissues parallel with surface load directions. METHODS Participants were prone and a typical preload maneuver was applied to thoracic tissues. Ultrasound speckle tracking ...

To derive the fractional flow equation oil displacement will be assumed to take place under the so-called diffusive flow condition. The constraints are that fluid saturations at any point in the linear displacement path are uniformly distributed with respect to thickness; this allows the displacement to be described mathematically in one dimension. The simultaneous flow of oil and water can be ...
