Distribution of strike‐slip faults on Europa [PDF]
Study of four different regions on Europa imaged by the Galileo spacecraft during its first 15 orbits has revealed 117 strike‐slip faults. Europa appears to form preferentially right‐lateral faults in the southern hemisphere and left‐lateral faults in the northern hemisphere.

Sensitivity Analysis for Seafloor Geodetic Constraints on Coseismic Slip and Interseismic Slip-Deficit Distributions [PDF]
Estimating the coseismic slip distribution and interseismic slip-deficit distribution play an important role in understanding the mechanism of massive earthquakes and predicting the resulting damage. It is useful to observe the crustal deformation not only in the land area, but also directly above the seismogenic zone.

Earthquake slip distribution: A statistical model [PDF]
The purpose of this paper is to interpret slip statistics in a framework of extended earthquake sources. We first discuss deformation pattern of the Earth's surface from earthquakes and suggest that continuum versus block motion controversy can be reconciled by a model of the fractal distribution of seismic sources.

On 28 August 2009, the northern margin of the Qaidam basin in the Tibet Plateau was ruptured by an Mw 6.3 earthquake. This study utilizes the Envisat ASAR images from descending Track 319 and ascending Track 455 for capturing the coseismic deformation ...

The equivalence of geophysical fields, the finiteness of measurements and the measurement errors make the result of geophysical inversion non-unique. For example, the measurements and inversion method used, the priori rupture model determined and the ...

Pressure generated by partially water-repellent flat thrust bearing with weak water-repellent part
The generation state of the pressure for partial water-repellent (slip) type flat thrust bearings with high/low slip parts was examined with experiments and infinite width bearing approximation.

The 13 November 2016 Kaikoura earthquake occurred in the northeastern coastal region of the South Island, New Zealand. The Mw 7.8 mainshock generated a complex pattern of surface ruptures, and was followed within about 12 hours by three moderate shocks ...

Slip-Related Changes in Plantar Pressure Distribution, and Parameters for Early Detection of Slip Events [PDF]
To investigate differences in plantar pressure distribution between a normal gait and unpredictable slip events to predict the initiation of the slipping process.Eleven male participants were enrolled. Subjects walked onto a wooden tile, and two layers of oily vinyl sheet were placed on the expected spot of the 4th step to induce a slip.

Wenchuan Ms8.0 earthquake coseismic slip distribution inversion
AbstractBy using GPS and gravity data before and after the Wenchuan Ms8.0 earthquake and combining data from geological surveys and geophysical inversion studies, an initial coseismic fault model is constructed. The dip angle changes of the fault slip distribution on the fault plane are inversed, and the inversion results show that the shape of the ...
