Utilizing seismic techniques and dynamic field tests for soil dynamic response prediction in clay soils

Magazine of Civil Engineering
When evaluating the dynamic response of soil, shear modulus is an essential parameter to consider. In most cases, the shear modulus is estimated using the shear wave velocity (Vs) of the soil as observed in field geophysical testing.

Thermal structure and exhumation history of the Lesser Himalaya in central Nepal [PDF]

, 2004
The Lesser Himalaya (LH) consists of metasedimentary rocks that have been scrapped off from the underthrusting Indian crust and accreted to the mountain range over the last ~20 Myr. It now forms a significant fraction of the Himalayan collisional orogen.

Asymmetric continental deformation during South Atlantic rifting along southern Brazil and Namibia [PDF]

, 2017
Plate restoration of South America and Africa to their pre-breakup position faces the problem of gaps and overlaps between the continents, an issue commonly solved with implementing intra-plate deformation zones within South America.

Constraining the long-term evolution of the slip rate for a major extensional fault system in the central Aegean, Greece, using thermochronology [PDF]

, 2006
The brittle/ductile transition is a major rheologic boundary in the crust yet little is known about how or if rates of tectonic processes are influenced by this boundary.
