Distribution and gas exploration of the strike–slip faults in the central Sichuan Basin

Natural Gas Industry B, 2022
The Sichuan Basin has abundant oil and gas resources and it has been generally acknowledged as a super petroliferous basin. In recent years, immense exploration and development potential of deep natural gas emerges in the Sichuan Basin.

Experimental Investigation of the Effect of Fault Reactivation Induced by Water Injection

Applied Sciences
An understanding of fault reactivation induced by water injection is of great significance for geothermal energy development and utilization. We conducted a series of water injection shear tests on low-permeability granite samples that each contained a ...

Curved Fault Slip Captured by CCTV Video During the 2025  7.7 Myanmar Earthquake

The Seismic Record
On-fault geological observations from surface-breaking earthquakes typically contain curved slickenlines, suggesting fault slip is curved. However, slickenlines commonly record only a fraction of coseismic slip, making it difficult to reconstruct the ...

Local Buckling Failure of Buried Pipeline under the Action of Oblique-slip Fault

Shiyou jixie, 2022
In practice,many pipelines will cross oblique-slip faults,but presently there is little research on the buckling failure of buried pipelines under the action of both horizontal and vertical oblique-slip faults.Therefore,based on ABAQUS finite element ...

Fault slip in southern California [PDF]

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 1985
AbstractMeasurements of slip on major faults in southern California have been performed over the past 18 yr using principally theodolite alignment arrays and tautwire extensometers. They provide geodetic control within a few hundred meters of the fault traces, which complements measurements made by other techniques at larger distances.

Investigation on dynamic mechanism of fault slip and casing deformation during multi-fracturing in shale gas wells

Scientific Reports
Fracturing horizontal well casing deformation has become very prominent, particularly in tectonic stress-concentrated shale gas fields, limiting the efficient development progress of shale gas.

New insights into the evolution and formation mechanism of SB5 fault: a case study from the Fuman Oilfield, Tarim basin, NW China

Frontiers in Earth Science
The Shunbei 5 (SB5) strike-slip fault, situated in the central Tarim basin, is distinguished by its considerable length, significant variations in planar orientation, and intricate multi-stage tectonic evolution.

Estimation of the Rupture History of the 2008 Mw8.0 Wenchuan Earthquake by Joint Inversion of Teleseismic and Strong-Motion Records

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020
In order to reproduce the rupture history of the 2008 Mw8.0 Wenchuan earthquake, the teleseismic and strong-motion records are adopted. Based on a multiple-segment, variable-slip model, the finite fault inversion method is utilized to recover the rupture

Scaled unscented transformation method and adaptive Monte Carlo method used for effects of fault parameters estimation on green function matrix in slip distribution inversion

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2020
The elements of Green function matrix are the nonlinear functions of fault parameters estimation, the randomness of fault parameters estimation causes that the slip distribution inversion turns to be the parameter estimation problem of total least ...
