The Northern Gulf of Evoia is a region with an intense neotectonic activity, dominated by characteristic and impressive active faults. The only fault in the region which is connected with a strong historical earthquake, is the Atalanti fault, with the well-known earthquake sequence of 1894. For an accurate mapping of the fault trace, the 1894 surface ruptures investigation and the estimation of the area's seismic hazard, there has been made a detailed geological - neotectonic investigation of the Atalanti city area. The results of this investigation show that the Atalanti fault comprises a 20- 30km long fault zone, divided in at least 4 segments: Atalanti, Kiparissi-Almyra, Tragana-Proskyna, Martino and possibly Larymna segment. The maximum earthquake magnitude is estimated in Msmax=6.8, and the recurrence interval, concerning the same magnitude, for Atalanti fault is larger than 1000 years, possibly even more than 2000 years. Paleoseismological trenching in Agios Konstantinos area excludes the connection of this fault with the earthquake sequence of 1894.

AbstractIn this paper, an active fault-tolerant control (FTC) scheme for turbofan engines subject to simultaneous multiplicative and additive actuator faults under disturbances is proposed. First, a state error feedback controller is designed based on interval observer as the nominal controller in order to achieve the model reference rotary speed tracking control for the fault-free turbofan engine under disturbances. Subsequently, a virtual actuator based reconfiguration block is developed aiming at preserving the consistent performance in spite of the occurrence of the simultaneous multiplicative and additive actuator faults. Moreover, to improve the performance of the FTC system, the interval observer is slightly modified without reconstruction of the state error feedback controller. And a theoretical sufficiency criterion is provided to ensure the stability of the proposed active FTC system. Simulation results on a turbofan engine indicate that the proposed active FCT scheme is effective despite of the existence of actuator faults and disturbances.

Abstract The ability to calculate the seismogram of an earthquake at a local or regional scale is critical but challenging for many seismological studies because detailed knowledge about the 3D heterogeneities in the Earth’s subsurface, although essential, is often insufficient. Here, we present an application of compressed sensing technology that can help predict the seismograms of earthquakes at any position using data from past events randomly distributed in the same area in Jinggu County, Yunnan, China. This first data-driven approach for calculating seismograms generates a large dataset in 3D with a volume encompassing an active fault zone. The input number of earthquakes comprises only 1.27% of the total output events. We use the output data to create a database intended to find the best-matching waveform of a new event by applying an earthquake search engine, which instantly reveals the hypocenter and focal-mechanism solution.
