Asymmetrical Microfracture Density Across an Active Thrust Fault: Evidence from the Longmen Shan Fault, Eastern Tibet [PDF]

open access: yesLithosphere
Microfracture density in fault damage zones can reflect spatial variability that decays in intensity as a function of distance from the fault, which is crucial in understanding the mechanical, seismological, and fluid-flow properties of the fault system.

Attitude Tracking Control Reconfiguration for Space Launch Vehicle With Thrust Loss Fault

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
The thrust loss fault of the space launch vehicle is quite different from that of ordinary actuator efficiency loss. Focusing on the attitude tracking control problem of the launch vehicle with thrust loss fault, the special impacts of that fault on the ...

Width of surface rupture zone for thrust earthquakes: implications for earthquake fault zoning [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2018
The criteria for zoning the surface fault rupture hazard (SFRH) along thrust faults are defined by analysing the characteristics of the areas of coseismic surface faulting in thrust earthquakes.

Erosion influences the seismicity of active thrust faults [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2014
Assessing seismic hazards remains one of the most challenging scientific issues in Earth sciences. Deep tectonic processes are classically considered as the only persistent mechanism driving the stress loading of active faults over a seismic cycle. Here we show via a mechanical model that erosion also significantly influences the stress loading of ...

Structural analysis of the Rubjerg Knude Glaciotectonic Complex, Vendsyssel, Northern Denmark [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2005
The Rubjerg Knude Glaciotectonic Complex is a thin-skinned thrust-fault complex that was formed during the advance of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet (30 000 – 26 000 B.P.); it is well exposed in a 6 km long coastal profile bordering the North Sea in northern

Active faults and related Late Quaternary deformation along the Northwestern Himalayan Frontal Zone, India

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2003
Numerous newly-identified traces of active faults in the Himalayan foothill zone along the HFF around Chandigarh, in Pinjore Dun, along the piedmont zone of the Lower Siwalik hill front and within the Lower Tertiary hill range reveal the ...

The skills required for transition to university and study in biological sciences: A student perspective

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Bioscience students were asked for their opinions on the value and teaching of skills. 204 responded that teamwork, time management and study skills are necessary to reach University, that scientific writing, research, laboratory and presentation skills are taught effectively during their studies, while other skills are gained inherently through study ...

Topographic Expressions of Large Thrust Faults on Mars [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2018
AbstractOn planets with little erosion, thrust faults produce broad, asymmetric, positive‐relief, linear to arcuate ridges—often referred to as lobate scarps—that remain largely unaltered, such that their topographic expressions are a measure of the structural uplift caused by the displacement and associated country rock deformation of the faults.

Remote Assessment of Ataxia Severity in SCA3 Across Multiple Centers and Time Points

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a genetically defined ataxia. The Scale for Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) is a clinician‐reported outcome that measures ataxia severity at a single time point. In its standard application, SARA fails to capture short‐term fluctuations, limiting its sensitivity in trials.

Test on the Reliability of the Subsurface Fault Geometry Estimated by Deformed River Terraces Along the Bailang River, North Front of the Qilian Shan (North West China)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The subsurface fault geometry is the base for understanding a process of crust deformation and mountain building. Based on kinematic models for fault-related folds, a geomorphic method is recently applied to estimate the subsurface fault geometry, while ...
