The Locking Depth of the Cholame Section of the San Andreas Fault from ERS2-Envisat InSAR

Remote Sensing, 2018
The Cholame section of the San Andreas Fault (SAF), which has been considered locked since 1857, has been little studied using geodetic methods. In this study, we propose to use Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) to contribute to the ...

Characterizing Crustal Deformation of the Weihe Fault, Weihe Basin (Central China), Using InSAR and GNSS Observations

Applied Sciences, 2023
The Weihe Fault is an important basement fault that is buried deep and controls the formation, evolution, and seismicity of the Weihe Basin. It has been quiescent for more than 300 years with only a few moderate and small earthquakes distributed unevenly.

Open crack depth sizing by multi-speed continuous laser stimulated lock-in thermography [PDF]

Measurement Science and Technology, 2017
A crack located in the thermal diffusion zone of a heat source behaves like a thermal barrier modifying the heat diffusion. For a moving continuous source, the sample surface is heated on a little area near the crack for a duration which depends on the speed of the thermal source.

Assessing Slip Rates on the Xianshuihe Fault Using InSAR with Emphasis on Phase Unwrapping Error and Atmospheric Delay Corrections

Remote Sensing
Located on the southeastern periphery of the Tibetan Plateau, the Xianshuihe fault (XSHF) is an active left-lateral strike-slip fault renowned for its frequent and intensive seismic activities. This highlights the necessity of employing advanced geodetic

Experimental investigation on the deformation characteristics of locking-steel- pipe (LSP) pile retaining structure during excavation in sand

Underground Space, 2022
Locking-steel-pipe (LSP) piles connect with adjacent joints to form a pile row enclosure structure. Due to the advantages of quick construction, efficiency in installation, and recycle utilization, the connected LSP piles are frequently used as retaining

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 ...

Stress evolution of the San Andreas fault system: Recurrence interval versus locking depth [PDF]

Geophysical Research Letters, 2009
Major ruptures along the San Andreas Fault System (SAFS) are driven by stress that has accumulated in the upper locked portion of the crust. The present‐day stress accumulation rate on any given fault segment is fairly well resolved by current geodetic measurements.

Slip rates and locking depth variation along central and easternmost segments of North Anatolian Fault [PDF]

Geophysical Journal International, 2015
While the kinematics of Anatolia plate and the North Anatolian Fault System (NAFS) has been studied extensively, the slip rate and locking depth along the NAFS are usually assumed constant in the analyses due to the lack of sufficient data. This is also partly due to the reasonably good fit of Euler small circle and partly due to the lack of spatial ...

Bioinspired Shape‐Memory Hook Fasteners With Programmable Interlocking and Silent Release

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Bioinspired hook fasteners made from epoxy shape‐memory polymers are shown to switch between strong, secure attachment and gentle, silent release when heated. By combining programmable geometry and material response, these adaptive fasteners outperform commercial systems in strength and noise control, enabling new solutions for robotics, medical ...
