Car following behaviours on multilane highways in Kuwait: A case study on road 40 during winter season by Alenzi, Eisa, Sitti Asmah, Hassan, Othman, Che Puan

“…In a condition, where the traffic volume is in a free-flowing situation, the selection of vehicles speed is typically limited by some factors such as weather conditions, lighting, and road geometry features. This study aims to investigate the effects of climates on driver’s car following behaviour and speed flow relationships for highways in Kuwait. …”

GPS‑based slip models of one Mw 7.2 and twenty moderate earthquakes along the Sumatran plate boundary by Wong, Nathanael Z., Feng, Lujia, Hill, Emma M.

“…We model each event as a single rectangular patch of uniform slip and constrain most of the patch parameters using external information based on slab geometry and global teleseismic catalogs. For each event, we use a grid-search approach to find the preferred location of slip patches, which we present along with contours of error-weighted variance explained to indicate the uncertainties. …”

Constraints on the shallow deformation around the Main Frontal Thrust in central Nepal from refraction velocities by Liu, Yixiang, Hubbard, Judith, Almeida, Rafael V., Foster, Anna, Liberty, Lee, Lee, Ying Sin, Sapkota, Soma Nath

“…We use firstarrival picks from 625,416 seismic traces to derive P-wave seismic velocity models using a wavepath eikonaltraveltime inversion method, and derive estimates of alluvium thickness and water table depth across thesefaults (the Patu and Bardibas thrusts), allowing us to constrain the subsurface geometry of the MFT.Our results show that 1) seismic velocities range from 255 to 3660 m/s, consistent with dry and saturatedalluvium, and Siwalik bedrock; 2) low-velocity alluvium varies between ~20–50 and ~80–120 m thick in thehanging wall and footwall of the Bardibas thrust, respectively, corresponding to ~60–70 m of uplift of thehanging wall since deposition; 3) the two thrusts are soft-linked, and the western tip of the Bardibas thrust lies~6 km west of its surface expression; 4) during the dry season, the water table is ~25–100 m higher in thehanging walls of the faults than in their footwalls, due to the larger thickness of permeable alluvium in thefootwalls, and the water table shallows towards the east in the hanging wall of the Bardibas thrust; and 5)consistent with previous studies, the Patu thrust breaches the surface, while the Bardibas thrust is blind at RatuKhola. …”

Spin-orbit coupling and spin-polarized electronic structures of Janus vanadium-dichalcogenide monolayers: first-principles calculations by Lv, Ming-Hao, Li, Chang Ming, Sun, Weifeng

“…Phonon and spintronic structures of monolayered Janus vanadium-dichalcogenide compounds are calculated by the first-principles schemes of pseudopotential plane-wave based on spin-density functional theory, to study dynamic structural stability and electronic spin-splitting due to spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and spin polarization. Geometry optimizations and phonon-dispersion spectra demonstrate that vanadium-dichalcogenide monolayers possess a high enough cohesive energy, while VSTe and VTe2 monolayers specially possess a relatively higher in-plane elastic coefficient and represent a dynamically stable structure without any virtual frequency of atomic vibration modes. …”
