Conditional Random Field Approach Combining FFT Filtering and Co-Kriging for Reliability Assessment of Slopes

Applied Sciences
Conventional unconditional random field (URF) models were shown to neglect in-situ monitoring data and thus misrepresent real slope stability. To address this, a conditional random field (CRF) generator was proposed, in which Fast Fourier Transform (FFT)

Permeability characteristics of fractured rock mass: a case study of the Dongjiahe coal mine

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2020
The intricate distribution of fractures in rock mass leads to the anisotropy of permeability characteristics of the rock mass, which affects the overall stability of rock mass.

Expected Seismicity and the Seismic Noise Environment of Europa [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2018
AbstractSeismic data will be a vital geophysical constraint on internal structure of Europa if we land instruments on the surface. Quantifying expected seismic activity on Europa both in terms of large, recognizable signals and ambient background noise is important for understanding dynamics of the moon, as well as interpretation of potential future ...

Earthquakes of the Nepal Himalaya : Towards a Physical Model of the Seismic Cycle [PDF]

, 2013
Home to hundreds of millions of souls and land of excessiveness, the Himalaya is also the locus of a unique seismicity whose scope and peculiarities still remain to this day somewhat mysterious.

Experimental Investigation of Flow Domain Division in Beds Packed with Different Sized Particles

Energies, 2017
Seepage in a medium packed with particles of variable granular size can be seen in many fields of engineering applications. Due to the relative complex spatial aspect of pore geometry, there are notable differences in the critical parameters of flow ...

Gas and seismicity within the Istanbul seismic gap [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2018
AbstractUnderstanding micro-seismicity is a critical question for earthquake hazard assessment. Since the devastating earthquakes of Izmit and Duzce in 1999, the seismicity along the submerged section of North Anatolian Fault within the Sea of Marmara (comprising the “Istanbul seismic gap”) has been extensively studied in order to infer its mechanical ...

Frequency-magnitude distribution and spatial fractal dimension of seismicity at the geysers geothermal area and long valley caldera, California [PDF]

, 1998
Although there is no obvious reason why seismic 6-value and the spatial fractal dimension of earthquakes, D, should be related, there are several reports of observed empirical correlations between these two quantities.

Defining the Relationship between Seismicity and Deformation at Regional and Local Scales [PDF]

, 2013
In this thesis, I use source inversion methods to improve understanding of crustal deformation along the Nyainquentanglha (NQTL) Detachment in Southern Tibet and the Piceance Basin in northwestern Colorado.
