Geomorphology Characterization of Ica Basin and Its Influence on the Dynamic Response of Soils for Urban Seismic Hazards in Ica, Peru

International Journal of Geophysics, 2018
We evaluated the influence of the geomorphology of Peru’s Ica Basin on the dynamic response of soils of the city of Ica. We applied five geophysical methods: spectral ratio (H/V), frequency-wavenumber (F-K), multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW),

Application of high resolution geophysical prospecting to assess the risk related to subsurface deformationin Mexico City [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015
In the eastern sector of Mexico City the sub soil consists of high contrasting sequences (lacustrine and volcanic inter bedded deposits) that favor the development of erratic fracturing in the surface causing damage to the urban infrastructure.

Metal Oxide Nano‐Interface Boosting the Deep Ultraviolet Adjustable Noise‐Filtering In‐Sensor Computing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We show that sol‐gel‐fractured indium–magnesium oxide combines deep‐ultraviolet responsivity, high carrier mobility, and an excellent memory dynamic range. This unique materials platform enables deep‐ultraviolet long‐afterglow light‐emitting devices with multifunctional integration.

Waves and instabilities in rotating free surface flows [PDF]

, 2013
The stability properties of the rotating free surface flow in a cylindrical container is studied using a global stability approach, considering succesively three models. For the case of solid body rotation (Newton’s bucket), all eigenmodes are found to be

Improving Rigidity of Clay by Using Explosives and Proofing by Multichannel Analysis of Surface Waves (MASW) [PDF]

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019
The construction foundation problem in complex conditions with specific types of soils (peat and organic sediment, sludge, soft clay, etc.) is relevant at the present time. Excessive moisture, low bearing capacity, high compressibility, and other negative qualities of these soils make the process of foundation more expensive and complicated. To improve
