The results show that both of the dislocation and the geometry of the fault plane are the basic elements that determine the gravity and deformation effects. Gravity changes, vertical deformations and apparent vertical deformations induced by the dislocation are alike in their characteristic patterns. The similarities and differences of these patterns provide us a probability in acquiring the gravity and deformation anomalies due to faulting from the observed data. Thus the geometric and kinematic features of the earthquake-generating faults can be appropriately distinguished and evaluated.展开更多

Our purpose is to verify such changes by comparing the values of each variable before and after puberty. Puberty is associated with the end of growth and is an important point in our theoretical framework: when growth ends, changes occur in the geometry of the biological system. At the same time, this causes phase changes in the oscillatory variables, which are seen as chronodisruption. The results confirm the changes found by other authors in the evolution of the variables throughout life. Then, we can conclude that the variables studied present phase changes when growth ends, in accordance with the proposed theoretical framework.展开更多
