Abstract: On July 20, 2017 22:31 UTC, a strong Mw = 6.6 earthquake occurred at shallow depth between Kos Island (Greece) and Bodrum (Turkey). We derive a co-seismic fault model from joint inversion of geodetic data (GNSS and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-00249-x
Abstract: In one of the largest oil-gas fields in Daqing, China, the anticlines are important structures that hold natural gas. The origin of the symmetric anticlines, which have bends on both the limbs, remains under debate.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1741-4326/aab62c
Abstract: A finite-state off-normal and fault response (ONFR) system is presented that provides the supervisory logic for comprehensive disruption avoidance and machine protection in tokamaks. Robust event handling is critical for ITER and future large tokamaks,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1139/cgj-2017-0044
Abstract: Significant permanent fault rupture may occur during earthquakes and induce adverse effects on pipelines when they are located within a fault zone. Although fault movement–pipeline interaction has attracted increasing research attention recently, a simplified method… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/app13116440
Abstract: Tunnels may suffer severe damage when passing through an active fault in high-intensity earthquake zones. The present study aims to investigate the performance of an isolation layer composed of a rubber-sand mixture, an emerging trend… read more here.
