Application of Moving Kriging Shape Functions on Plate Problems
The Moving Kriging (MK) interpolation was recently proposed as a superior substitution of the Moving Least Square (MLS) approximation in the construction of shape functions for the Element-Free Galerkin Method (EFGM).

Geology and geochemistry of the shear-hosted Julie gold deposit, NW Ghana
Abstract The Leo Man Craton in West Africa is host to numerous economic gold deposits. If some regions, such as the SW of Ghana, are well known for world-class mineralizations and have been extensively studied, gold occurrences elsewhere in the craton have been discovered only in the last half a century or so, and very little is known about them. The

Spatio-temporal evolution of intraplate strike-slip faulting: the Neogene-Quaternary Kuh-e-Faghan Fault, Central Iran [PDF]
Central Iran provides an ideal region to study the long-term morphotectonic response to the nucleation and propagation of intraplate faulting. In this study, a multidisciplinary approach that integrates structural and stratigraphic field investigations ...

Deep ductile shear localization facilitates near-orthogonal strike-slip faulting in a thin brittle lithosphere [PDF]
Some active fault systems comprise near-orthogonal conjugate strike-slip faults, as highlighted by the 2019 Ridgecrest and the 2012 Indian Ocean earthquake sequences.

Simulating spatial and temporal evolution of multiple wing cracks around faults in crystalline basement rocks [PDF]
Fault zones are structurally highly spatially heterogeneous and hence extremely complex. Observations of fluid flow through fault zones over several scales show that this structural complexity is reflected in the hydrogeological properties of faults ...

Characteristics of the deforming bed: till properties on the deglaciated Antarctic continental shelf
Contemporary ice stream flow is directly linked to conditions at the ice/bed interface, yet this environment is logistically difficult to access.
