Slip distribution and fracture in magnesium oxide
Philosophical Magazine, 1962Abstract It is shown that as-cleaved magnesium oxide may go through several distinguishable stages of deformation prior to fracture. The exact mechanism of fracture depends on the stage at which it actually occurs. In all cases fracture occurs by a dislocation configuration localizing strain energy near a sub-critical microcrack.

INTRINSIC MODE FUNCTIONS OF EARTHQUAKE SLIP DISTRIBUTION
Advances in Adaptive Data Analysis, 2010In this paper, empirical mode decomposition technique is used to analyze the spatial slip distribution of five past earthquakes. It is shown that the finite fault slip models exhibit five empirical modes of oscillation. The last intrinsic mode is positive and characterizes the non-stationary mean of the slip distribution.

Hypocentral dependent shallow slip distribution and rupture extents along a strike-slip fault
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2022Abstract Natural faults feature heterogeneities in geometry, material properties, and stress distributions, posing great challenges in predicting fault slip behaviors. Among these factors, the stress on the fault is poorly understood due to the lack of direct measurements.

Predicting the probability of slip in gait: methodology and distribution study
Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 2015The likelihood of a slip is related to the available and required friction for a certain activity, here gait. Classical slip and fall analysis presumed that a walking surface was safe if the difference between the mean available and required friction coefficients exceeded a certain threshold.

Stick-slip operation of the modular distributed manipulator system
Proceedings of the 1998 American Control Conference. ACC (IEEE Cat. No.98CH36207), 1998The modular distributed manipulator system (MDMS) is a novel materials handling system which is a fixed array of actuated wheels capable of inducing arbitrary motions in the plane. The wheels transport and manipulate objects that rest on the array. The motion of the object is determined by a combination of object weight distribution, actuator dynamics,

Displacement Hazard from Distributed Ruptures in Strike-Slip Earthquakes
Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2023ABSTRACTWidespread distributed fracturing during earthquakes threatens infrastructure and lifelines. We combine high-resolution rupture maps from the five major surface-rupturing strike-slip earthquakes in southern California and northern Mexico since 1992 to incorporate the displacements produced by distributed ruptures into a probabilistic ...

Slip of polydisperse polymers: Molecular weight distribution above and below the plane of slip
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2015When strong slip occurs during the drag flow of highly entangled polybutadienes (PBD) in a sliding plate rheometer equipped with stainless steel parallel plates, a thin film of polymer debris remains on the substrate after the slip. This debris is assumed to be formed by the disentanglement process that occurs in strong slip at a distance of about one ...

Measurement of the pressure distribution during the onset of slip
2012 IEEE Sensors, 2012We report on the direct measurement of the pressure distribution of the contact surface between an elastic block and a rigid plate during the onset of slip. The measurement was carried out by using an array of seven MEMS pressure sensors embedded inside the elastic block.

Distribution of slip along an earthquake fault
Acta Seismologica Sinica, 2004Slip distribution of the 1979 Imperial Valley, 1989 Loma Prieta, 1992 Landers, 1994 Northridge, and 1995 Kobe earthquake shows a piece-wise Gutenberg-Richter’s law. For small slips, the b-value is near to 1; while for large slips, the b-value is larger than 1.

The co-seismic slip distribution of the Landers earthquake
Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 1994AbstractWe derived a model for the co-seismic slip distribution on the faults which ruptured during the Landers earthquake sequence of 28 June 1992. The model is based on the inversion of surface geodetic measurements, primarily vector displacements measured using the Global Positioning System (GPS).
