Transform fault earthquakes in the North Atlantic: Source mechanisms and depth of faulting [PDF]
The centroid depths and source mechanisms of 12 large earthquakes on transform faults of the northern Mid-Atlantic Ridge were determined from an inversion of long-period body waveforms.

Complex Segment Linkage Along the Sevier Normal Fault, Southwestern Utah [PDF]
Major normal fault systems are composed of segments that link as displacement accumulates, with linkage zone characteristics that reveal fault zone evolution.

The development of the impedance measured by distance relay [PDF]
This paper explains the possibility of implementation of a model of a quadrilateral characteristic type of distance relay with the zones using MATLAB/SIMULINK package. SimPowerSystem was used to present modeling of distance relay.

Structural, Mineralogical, and Geochemical Characterization of the Chelungpu Thrust Fault, Taiwan
The Chelungpu fault, Taiwan, produced a northward propagating rupture on 21 September 1999 resulting in a Mw 7.6 earthquake with a ~90 km long N-S trending fault scarp.

Fault compaction and overpressured faults: results from a 3-D model of a ductile fault zone [PDF]
A model of a ductile fault zone is incorporated into a forward 3-D earthquake model to better constrain fault-zone hydraulics. The conceptual framework of the model fault zone was chosen such that two distinct parts are recognized.

Age constraints for the present fault configuration in the Imperial Valley, California: Evidence for northwestward propagation of the Gulf of California rift system [PDF]
Releveling and other geophysical data for the Imperial Valley of southern California suggest the northern section of the Imperial-Brawley fault system, which includes the Mesquite Basin and Brawley Seismic Zone, is much younger than the 4 to 5 million ...

A Proposition for Geodetic Recording of Active Fault Zones [PDF]
Establishing recent displacements along faults is an important and delicate task. Larger\ud faults are accompanied by broader fault zones that require a specific approach to geodetic\ud measurements of fault block displacements. The vector of fault block
