Fault interaction at different time- and length scales : the North Tehran thrust and Mosha-Fasham fault (Alborz mountains, Iran)
… collision. Linked strike-slip and thrust/reverse-fault systems in this mountain belt are characterized by slow loading rates, and large earthquakes are highly disparate in space and time. Similar to other intracontinental deformation zones such a pattern of tectonic activity is still …

Characteristics of active deformation, fault interaction, and earthquake triggering in a rapidly-deforming complex normal fault network (south-west Türkiye)
… on subduction zones and continental transform faults, normal faulting earthquakes frequently cause severe destruction and casualties. Understanding earthquake occurrence and determining those faults most at risk of rupturing in destructive earthquakes is crucial to prevent disasters. A key …

Some rock mechanics problems with application for hydraulic fracturing
… (HF) and pre-existing natural fractures (NF) or faults. The technique is most effective when the hydraulic fracture crosses natural fractures rather than arresting on them. Experiments conducted to examine the interaction between HF and artificial pre-existing faults suggest that the coupling of …

Software Reliability Issues: An Experimental Approach
… experiments.</p> <p>We show that controlling fault recovery order as represented by the data input to some well-known reliability models can enable them to produce more accurate predictions and can mitigate anomalous effects we attribute to manifestations of the fault interaction phenomenon. …

Crustal deformation source monitoring using advanced InSAR time series and time dependent inverse modeling
… result of volcanic and tectonic activity such as fault dislocation and magma intrusion. The crustal deformation may precede and/or succeed the earthquake occurrence and eruption. Mitigating the associated hazard, continuous monitoring of the crustal deformation accordingly has become an important …

Geometry, evolution and scaling of fault relay zones in 3D using detailed observations from outcrops and 3D seismic data
… during the course of the thesis, which enables fault-related deformation – specifically, the apparent dip of mapped horizons measured in a direction perpendicular to the average strike of a fault array (here termed “fault-normal rotation”, or “FNR”) – to be quantitatively analysed around imaged …
