Tectonic implication in the evolution of lake and Quaternary landforms in the Lohawati river basin, Kumaun outer Lesser Himalaya

open access: yesJournal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2022
The evolution of the Quaternary landforms in the Champawat area of the outer Kumaun Lesser Himalaya is reconstructed from the paleolake sections and the geometry of the landscape.

Geometrical imagery and kinematic dissipation of the late Cenozoic active faults in the West Qinling Belt: Implications for the growth of the Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesDizhi lixue xuebao, 2021
The West Qinling Belt (WQB) situated in the central China continent, is an enormous structure on the crustal scale, which is not controlled only by the Tethyan tectonic domain but is more complex, involving additional tectonic domains.

Robust fault tolerant control framework using uncertain Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This chapter is concerned with the introduction of a fault tolerant control (FTC) framework using uncertain Takagi-Sugeno (FS) fuzzy models. Depending on how much information is available about the fault, the framework gives rise to passive FTC, active

Studying a Subsiding Urbanized Area from a Multidisciplinary Perspective: The Inner Sector of the Sarno Plain (Southern Apennines, Italy)

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Defining the origin of ground deformation, which can be a very challenging task, may be approached through several investigative techniques. Ground deformation can originate in response to both natural (e.g., tectonics) and anthropic (e.g., groundwater ...

Seismicity relocation and fault structure near the Leech River Fault Zone, southern Vancouver Island [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Relatively low rates of seismicity and fault loading have made it challenging to correlate microseismicity to mapped surface faults on the forearc of southern Vancouver Island.

Active Fault Trace Identification Using a LiDAR High-Resolution DEM: A Case Study of the Central Yangsan Fault, Korea

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Korea has been recognized as an earthquake-safe zone, but over recent decades, several earthquakes, at a medium scale or higher, have occurred in succession in and around the major fault zones, hence there is a need for studying active faults to mitigate

Earthquake Probability Assessment for the Active Faults in Central Taiwan: A Case Study

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2016
Frequent high seismic activities occur in Taiwan due to fast plate motions. According to the historical records the most destructive earthquakes in Taiwan were caused mainly by inland active faults.

Millennial slip rate of the Longitudinal Valley fault from river terraces: Implications for convergence across the active suture of eastern Taiwan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The Longitudinal Valley fault is a key element in the active tectonics of Taiwan. It is the principal structure accommodating convergence across one of the two active sutures of the Taiwan orogeny.

ACTIVE FAULTS AND CHARACTERIZATION IN OSAKA AND ALMATY BY BORING DATA BASE

open access: yesArchitecture and Engineering, 2018
The active fault in Osaka is known as Uemachi fault, which had been originally identified as geomorphological feature of the Osaka high terrace. However, the position of the fault line was corrected by geotechnical information during subway construction.

Active folding of fluvial terraces across the Siwaliks Hills, Himalayas of central Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We analyze geomorphic evidence of recent crustal deformation in the sub-Himalaya of central Nepal, south of the Kathmandu Basin. The Main Frontal Thrust fault (MFT), which marks the southern edge of the sub-Himalayan fold belt, is the only active ...
