Structural geology of the Fuegian Andes and Magallanes fold-and-thrust belt - Tierra del Fuego Island

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2008
A synthesis of the structural geology of the Tierra del Fuego Island, which integrates a new data set derived from field surveys and literature data of the last few years, is presented here. The main geological features of the region developed during the

Identification of Natural and Forcing Frequencies through Noisy Measurements Acquired in Operational Conditions on a Hospital Building

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering
Operational modal analysis is a robust and practical approach to structural health monitoring which assumes white noise as input. Therefore, the accuracy of this method can be compromised when dealing with colored unknown excitations, in which, for ...

Effects of mechanical properties of the underburden on induced seismicity along a basement fault during hydrogen storage in a depleted reservoir

open access: yesiScience
Summary: This study models the geomechanical deformation of a depleted gas field, wherein gaseous hydrogen is stored in a North Sea reservoir, and is cyclically injected and withdrawn.

Straight impact crater rim segments on Mercury

open access: yesJournal of Maps
The formation of straight impact crater rims is widely accepted to be influenced by preexisting lithospheric structure. We investigate the distribution and orientations of straight crater rim segments across Mercury. We devise a mapping workflow aimed at

Experiencing Structural Geology

open access: yesJournal of Geological Education, 1978
Undergraduate students at the University of Arizona learn principles of structural geology while unraveling the complexities of well exposed, deformed rocks close to campus. Students spend all of their “lab” time in the field engaged in structural mapping and analysis.
