Oblique extension of pre-existing structures and its control on oil accumulation in eastern Bohai Sea

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2019
Based on 3D seismic data, the evolution mechanism and characteristics of faults were investigated to reveal the structural origin and its control on differential hydrocarbon accumulation through comprehensive analyses, including structure style analysis,

Pull-apart basin formation and development in narrow transform zones with application to the Dead Sea Basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Contrary to other examples, like Death Valley, California, and the Sea of Marmara, Turkey, the Dead Sea-type pull-apart basins form within a narrow transform corridor between strike-slip faults that are less than 10 km apart, much smaller than the ...

UTact: Underwater Vision‐Based Tactile Sensor with Geometry Reconstruction and Contact Force Estimation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Embedded flexible sensing technologies advance underwater soft robotics, yet most systems still suffer from hysteresis and limited perceptiveness. Instead, vision‐based tactile sensors provide reliable and rapid feedback essential for complex underwater tasks.

Strike-Slip Fault Effects on Diversity of the Ediacaran Mound-Shoal Distribution in the Central Sichuan Intracratonic Basin, China

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
The largest Precambrian gasfield in China has been found from the Ediacaran (Sinian) carbonates in the central Sichuan Basin. The deep ancient reservoirs were generally attributed to the high-energy mound-shoal body in the carbonate platform.

Kinematic and dynamic array of the alpine deformations in alto Tajo area (Guadalajara) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The geological macrostructure of Alto Tajo is defined by several N1500E dextral strike-slip faults with related secundary structures. The former set of faults together with others N-S sinistral strike-slip faults delimited areas in transtension and ...

The 11 May 2011 earthquake at Lorca (SE Spain) viewed in a structural-tectonic context [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Lorca earthquake of 11 May 2011 in the Betic Cordillera of SE Spain occurred almost exactly on the Alhama de Murcia fault, a marked fault that forms part of a NE-SW trending belt of faults and thrusts.

Multimodal Locomotion in Insect‐Inspired Microrobots: A Review of Strategies for Aerial, Surface, Aquatic, and Interfacial Motion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Neotectonics of the Sumatran fault, Indonesia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The 1900-km-long, trench-parallel Sumatran fault accommodates a significant amount of the right-lateral component of oblique convergence between the Eurasian and Indian/Australian plates from 10°N to 7°S.

Distribution of strike‐slip faults on Europa [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2000
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.

Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,
