Asymmetric Interseismic Strain across the Western Altyn Tagh Fault from InSAR

Remote Sensing, 2022
As the northern boundary of the Tibetan Plateau, the long Altyn Tagh fault (ATF) controls the regional tectonic environment, and the study of its long-term fault slip rate is key to understanding the tectonic evolution and deformation of the northern ...

Fault locking, block rotation and crustal deformation in the Pacific Northwest [PDF]

Geophysical Journal International, 2007
SummaryWe interpret Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements in the northwestern United States and adjacent parts of western Canada to describe relative motions of crustal blocks, locking on faults and permanent deformation associated with convergence between the Juan de Fuca and North American plates.

LONG-TERM CHANGES IN CRUSTAL MOVEMENTS AND DEFORMATIONS BEFORE AND DURING THE 2016 KUMAMOTO EARTHQUAKE SEQUENCE

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2022
The Kyushu Island, as well as whole Japanese archipelago, is equipped with dense GPS network (GEONET). It allows us to track the movements and deformations of the earth’s surface over long-term time intervals. In this study, based on daily determinations

Estimation of present-day inter-seismic deformation in Kopili fault zone of north-east India using GPS measurements

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2016
Current study reports the present-day inter-seismic deformation of Kopili fault zone of north-east India and slip rate estimate of Kopili fault using five epochs of global positioning system (GPS) data collected from seven campaigns and five permanent ...

Interseismic Slip and Coupling along the Haiyuan Fault Zone Constrained by InSAR and GPS Measurements

Remote Sensing, 2021
The Haiyuan fault zone is an important tectonic boundary and strong seismic activity belt in northeastern Tibet, but no major earthquake has occurred in the past ∼100 years, since the Haiyuan M8.5 event in 1920.

Fault localisation of ICs by lock-in fluorescent microthermal imaging (Lock-in FMI)

Proceedings of the 2004 International Conference on Quantitative InfraRed Thermography, 2004
An improved method for high resolution surface temperature aquisition using fluorescent microthermal imaging (FMI) is introduced. In combination with lock-inthermographie it can be applied for localisation of leakage currents in microelectronic devices with a precision accuracy of about 1µm.

Present-day strain accumulation in the Liupan Shan area, northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau by GPS observations

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2019
We derived a new GPS site velocity field by integrating the data of ten newly built stations across the Liupan Shan Fault, in the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau and those of pre-existing sites in this area for the period of 1999 - 2015.

Normal fault growth in layered rocks with contrasting lithologies: a case study from the upper tip of the Argence Fault (Charente, France)

Comptes Rendus. Géoscience, 2022
Increasing displacement along an isolated fault is generally associated with fault propagation within the host rock. This propagation is controlled by several factors, including host-rock lithology, tectonic context and the presence of preexisting ...
