Bouguer anomalies of the NW Iberian continental margin and the adjacent abyssal plains
Journal of Maps, 2019 The NW Iberian continental margin has a complex structure, resulting from the succession of several rifting episodes close to a ridge triple junction, and a superimposed partial tectonic inversion stage.

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract On February 6, 2023, southeastern Türkiye was struck by two catastrophic earthquakes (Mw: 7.7 and Mw: 7.6) along the East Anatolian Fault Zone, causing extensive structural failures and significant loss of life. This study evaluates the seismotectonic characteristics of the sequence, analyzes strong ground motion data against the Turkish ...

JGEET: Journal of Geoscience, Engineering, Environment and TechnologyThe Indo-Australian Oceanic Plate region is an active and complex subduction zone. Tectonic activity in this area generates various types of faults, including thrust, strike-slip, and normal faults, reflecting the dynamic deformation of the lithosphere ...

Fluvial and tectonic geomorphology of orogenic plateaux [PDF]
, 2013 Geomorphology is an expression of processes acting upon an area. The links between driving processes and the resulting geomorphology are far from being fully understood.

Terrain Synthesis and Authoring based on Iso‐Contours
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Digital terrains are central to realistic landscape depiction, yet authoring tools must balance perceptual realism with intuitive artistic control. We propose a compact vector‐based representation that models terrain as nested iso‐contours, inspired by geomorphology and cartography.

Post-stack inversion of seismic reflection data from the belvoir coalfield [PDF]
, 1995 Post-Stack inversion of reflection data in seismic exploration can be used to obtain detailed information about lithology variations in the zone of interest. Generalized Linear Inversion (GLI) has previously been applied as a useful tool to achieve this.

The aesthetic sublime of megaproject structures: A framework and a research agenda
European Management Review, EarlyView.Abstract The physical structures of megaprojects—such as mega‐canals, metros, railway lines, bridges, tunnels, and iconic opera houses—hold a profound capacity to generate aesthetic experiences with enduring societal impact. Yet, research on megaprojects has predominantly focused on functionality and economic rationale with aesthetics being pushed to ...

Three-dimensional geoacoustic perturbative inverse technique for the shallow ocean water column [PDF]
, 2013 textThis work focuses on developing an inversion scheme to estimate water-column sound-speed fields in three dimensions. The inversion scheme is based on a linearized perturbative technique which utilizes estimates of modal travel times.
