APUF Faults: Testing, Diagnosing, and Salvaging
… and numerically examines the impact of faults native to APUFs -- mask parameter faults from the design phase, or process variation (PV) during the manufacturing phase. We model them statistically and explain quantitatively how these faults affect the APUF response bias and uniqueness. We …

Spectrum-Based Fault Localization for Multiple Faults
… is the process of identifying and removing faults from a software system. The task is traditionally performed largely manually and is thus a costly part of the software development life-cycle. Many automated approaches have been proposed to alleviate the cost of debugging, particularly for …

SCALABLE TEST GENERATION FOR PATH DELAY FAULTS
… to improve test generation for path delay faults. The first technique presented in this dissertation avoids testing unnecessary paths by using arithmetic operations. This second technique shows how to compact many faults into a single test application, thus saving valuable test application …

Laboratory analysis of restrenghtening on simulated faults
… for fault strength, then the data suggest that faults restrengthen during the quiescent period of the earthquake cycle. Seismic surveys across natural faults show that seismic velocities increase with elapsed time after an earthquake. These data also indicate that faults lithify and heal during …

Concurrent detection of transient faults in microprocessors
… systems are due to the presence of transient faults. This is especially true of microprocessor-based systems working in a radiation environment that experience transient faults due to single event upsets. These upsets cause a temporary change in the state of the system without any permanent …

Transition Faults and Transition Path Delay Faults: Test Generation, Path Selection, and Built-In Generation of Functional Broadside Tests
… detected only if all the individual transition faults along the path are detected by the same test. To reduce the complexity of test generation, sub-procedures with low complexity are applied before a complete branch-and-bound procedure. Next, we describe a method based on static timing analysis …

CLASSIFICATION OF HIGH IMPEDANCE FAULTS, INCIPIENT FAULTS AND CIRCUIT BREAKER RESTRIKES DURING CAPACITOR BANK DE-ENERGIZATION IN RADIAL DISTRIBUTION FEEDERS
… of detecting very high impedance incipient faults (IFs) and CB restrikes at the substation level with relatively short detection time. The proposed method uses only current measurements at a low sampling rate of 1440 Hz yielding an improvement of existing methods that require much higher …

Earthquake behavior and structure of oceanic transform faults
Oceanic transform faults that accommodate strain at mid-ocean ridge offsets represent a unique environment for studying fault mechanics. Here, I use seismic observations and models to explore how fault structure affects mechanisms of slip at oceanic transforms. Using teleseismic data, I find that …

ESTIMATING LOCATIONS OF SHUNT FAULTS ON DISTRIBUTION LINES
… the locations of transmission line shunt faults has been to measure the apparent impedance to the fault from a line terminal and convert the reactive component of the impedance to the line length. Several methods, that use the fundamental frequency voltages and currents measured at one or …

Detecting and tolerating Byzantine faults in database systems
… of a replication scheme to handle Byzantine faults in transaction processing database systems. The scheme compares answers from queries and updates on multiple replicas which are off-the-shelf database systems, to provide a single database that is Byzantine fault tolerant. The scheme works …

Recovery from transient faults in wavefront processor arrays
… the idea of "rollback" to recover from transient faults. Rollback is done by saving the state of the processing element at different instants of time. When an error is detected, backtracking is done to a consistent state and computation resumes from that state. The rollback algorithm is …

Protection of Falling Conductors into Flammable Vegetation Faults
Increasing modernization of the world has brought about a human component to natural disasters, which are exacerbated by the growing threat of climate change. The Western United States and Australia have witnessed some of the deadliest, costliest, and destructive wildfires in the recent past with …

Electromagnetic flux monitoring for detecting faults in electrical machines
… motor to provide useful information about faults was investigated. The usefulness of this monitoring parameter was assessed in comparison with some other electrical parameters used for fault detection, such as stator phase current and circulating currents between the parallel branches of …

The characterisation and automatic classification of transmission line faults
… on a reliable electricity supply. Electrical faults on transmission lines are a cause of both interruptions to supply and voltage dips. These are the most common events impacting electricity users and also have the largest financial impact on them. This research focuses on understanding the …

Test of a method for recognizing unmapped seismogenic faults.
… 2004), I have attempted to locate Holocene faults in the Point Dume 7.5 minute quadrangle of the central Santa Monica Mountains, southern California. I projected the nodal planes from each of eight focal-mechanism solutions for earthquakes with reported epicenters within the Pt. Dume …
