Microtremor seismic surveys are routinely used to provide shear wave velocities that are converted to soil stiffness site profiles. In this paper, we look to assess the feasibility of using trains as seismic sources to characterize near-surface ...

Fuzzy set concept in structural geology: Example of ductile simple shear
Much of the time, geological data are not accurately known. Instead, geoscientists work with a range of possible data. These data can have a range since they can vary spatially and temporally. In this context, we demonstrate how a well-established structural geological model of velocity profile of ductile simple shear, expressed as an equation, can be ...

Primary characteristics of the extreme heavy rainfall event over Henan in July 2021
China is located in the East Asian monsoon region, which experiences relatively frequent heavy rainfall events in summer. Generally, the heavy rainfall frequency and accumulated amount in South China are higher than those of North China, whereas, the intensity of heavy rainfall in North China is similar to or even higher than that of South China.
