A structural interpretation of the aftershock "cloud" of the 1992 Mw 7.3 Landers earthquake by Liu, Jing, Sieh, Kerry, Hauksson, Egill

“…The intensity of damage decreases away from the principal faults. Less than half of the aftershocks occurred within 1 km of the mainshock planes, and perhaps only 5% of the aftershocks are candidates for rerupture of the mainshock faults. …”

Mathematical modelling of water filtration by Tan, Cindy Xin Yu

“…Saline water can be desalinized with the use of reverse osmosis, wherein a mixture of water and dissolved salt molecules is forced by a high pressure pump through a semi-permeable membrane, preventing the bigger salt molecules from getting through the holes of the membrane but allowing the tinier water molecules to do so. …”

Scan implementation and toggle coverage estimation for voice subsystem by Mohan, Vivek

“…Thus, Stress test performed at the time of burn-in involves toggle fault model. Toggle fault coverage provides a quick way to determine the extent of control over circuit nodes by driving them to logical 0 or 1 voltage, with less overhead compared to stuck-at model. …”

Dynamic Weakening by Acoustic Fluidization during Stick-Slip Motion by Giacco, F., Saggese, L., de Arcangelis, L., Lippiello, E., Pica Ciamarra, Massimo

“…Here we validate this mechanism via the numerical investigation of a granular fault model system. We find that the stick-slip dynamics is affected only by perturbations applied at a characteristic frequency corresponding to oscillations normal to the fault, leading to gradual dynamical weakening as failure is approaching. …”
