Thermal modeling of subduction zones with prescribed and evolving 2D and 3D slab geometries [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The determination of the temperature in and above the slab in subduction zones, using models where the top of the slab is precisely known, is important to test hypotheses regarding the causes of arc volcanism and intermediate-depth seismicity. While 2D and 3D models can predict the thermal structure with high precision for fixed slab geometries, a ...

Stiffness, Vibration, and Strength of Flat Slab and Flat Plate Lightweight Concrete Slabs
Journal of EngineeringFlat slabs made of two-way reinforced concrete are a common, effective, and affordable structural method. Thin layer slabs and lightweight are of great importance in modern building construction without the need to increase the cross-section of columns,

Superlensing properties of one-dimensional dielectric photonic crystals [PDF]
, 2009 We present the experimental observation of the superlensing effect in a slab of a one-dimensional photonic crystal made of tilted dielectric elements. We show that this flat lens can achieve subwavelength resolution in different frequency bands. We also demonstrate that the introduction of a proper corrugation on the lens surface can dramatically ...

S‐Wave Receiver Function Analysis of the Pampean Flat‐Slab Region: Evidence for a Torn Slab
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2018 Flat‐slab subduction is an atypical form of subduction where the downgoing plate assumes a low‐angle or subhorizontal geometry as it descends beneath the overriding plate.

Causes and consequences of flat-slab subduction in southern Peru [PDF]
, 2017 Flat or near-horizontal subduction of oceanic lithosphere has been an important tectonic process both currently and in the geologic past. Subduction of the aseismic Nazca Ridge beneath South America has been associated with the onset of flat subduction ...

Punching of Concrete Flat and Foundation Slabs
Transactions of the VŠB: Technical University of Ostrava, Civil Engineering Series, 2014 This paper deals with punching of flat and foundation slabs. Te paper presents limiting values of maximum punching resistance of these slab structures with sudden and brittle mode of failure.

Experimental and Numerical Investigations of Flat Approach Slab–Soil Interaction in Jointless Bridge [PDF]
Applied SciencesIn jointless bridges, a grade flat approach slab (GFAS) with the same elevation as the pavement can transfer the girder’s longitudinal deformation to the backfill.

Geometric controls on flat slab seismicity
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2019 Abstract The relationship between intraslab seismicity and the dynamics of subduction is a subject of ongoing debate. Uncertainty surrounds (1) the extent to which the stress regime associated with slab earthquakes reflects the driving/resisting forces of subduction, or more localised processes such as metamorphic or thermo-elastic volume change, and

Progressive Collapse Analysis Of Flat Slab Buildings With Post-Punching Effect [PDF]
مهندسی عمران شریف, 2021 The reinforced concrete flat slab is one of the types of floor systems used to construct residential, office and parking buildings. Because of the direct transfer of floor loads to columns, flat slabs are susceptible to punching failure in slab-column ...
