Effects of the Anisotropy of the Fault Zone Permeability on the Timing of Triggered Earthquakes: Insights from 3D-Coupled Fluid Flow and Geomechanical Deformation Modeling

Claudia Maria Colciago

In the last years, numerous seismological evidences have shown a strict correlation between fluid injection and seismicity. An important topic that is currently under discussion in the scientific community concerns the prediction of the earthquake magnitud ...

Ultra High-Speed Hardware Emulator for Real-Time Fault Location in Multi-Conductor Power Systems

Maher Kayal, François Krummenacher, François Pierre Gaugaz

This research presents a transmission line model aimed for the fault location in power systems using a method based on the Electromagnetic Time-Reversal (EMTR). The discrete-time model simulates the waves travelling in the line by means of many unit delays ...

Frictional Heating Processes and Energy Budget During Laboratory Earthquakes

François Xavier Thibault Passelègue

During an earthquake, part of the released elastic strain energy is dissipated within the slip zone by frictional and fracturing processes, the rest being radiated away via elastic waves. While frictional heating plays a key role in the energy budget of ea ...

Kariba plunge pool rehabilitation

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Azin Amini, Ivan Stojnic, Claudia Ylla Arbos

The Kariba Dam is a 128 m high arch dam located on the Zambezi River, between Zambia and Zimbabwe. It forms the Kariba lake, with a surface of 5400 km2 and a capacity of 185 km3. In the 20 years following dam construction, heavy rainfalls required frequent ...

Insulation effect on thermal stability of Coated Conductors wires in liquid nitrogen

Bertrand Dutoit, Bertrand Dutoit

Superconducting wires are not perfectly homogeneous in term of critical current as well as stabilization. In resistive fault current limiter applications this could lead to hot spots if the fault current is only slightly above the nominal current of the de ...

Probabilistic simulations of TBM Tunnelling in highly fractured and faulted rocks

Jian Zhao, Federica Sandrone, Jean-Paul Dudt, Erika Paltrinieri

Despite the potential excellent performance of TBMs in favourable ground conditions, the presence of fault zones or heavily jointed rocks represent important geological hazards encountered during tunnel excavation. The effects of these challenging environm ...
