Two isolation strategies using semiconductors and high speed fuses(HSFs) for MC short-circuit faults are examined and their performances are compared. The behavior of MC drive systems during the fuse action time under different operating conditions is explored. The feasibility of fault-tolerant operation during the fuse action time is also studied. The basic selection laws for the HSFs and the requirements for the passive components of the MC drive system from the point view of short-circuit faults are also discussed.

In this simulation elastic rheology was used and was thought justifiable as the variation in depth from 0.5 km to 20 km was considered. Series of calculations were performed with the variation in domain properties. Three types of models were created based on simple geological map of California, namely, 1) single domain model considering whole California as one homogeneous domain, 2) three domains model including the North American plate, Pacific plate, and SAF zone as separate domains, and 3) Four domains model including the three above plus the Garlock Fault zone. Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion and Byerlee's law were used for the calculation of failure state. All the models were driven by displacement boundary condition imposing the fixed North American plate and Pacific plate motion along N34°W vector up to the northern terminus of SAF and N50°E vector motion for the subducting the Gorda and Juan de Fuca plates. Our simulated results revealed that as the depth increased, the fault types were generally normal, and at shallow depth greater strike slip and some thrust faults were formed. It is concluded that SAF may be terminated as normal fault at depth although the surface expression is clearly strike slip.展开更多

文摘The Palu segment,situated in the northeastern part of the East Anatolian Fault System(EAFS),is a crucial structural feature with notable seismic potential.This study examines the paleoseismic activity of the Palu segment through trench excavations and geochronological analyses utilizing Optically Stimulated Luminescence(OSL)and radiocarbon(14C)dating methods.Two trenches,located near Karşıbahçeler,exposed evidence of multiple surface-rupturing seismic events spanning the Holocene and Pleistocene epochs.Chronological analyses identified five distinct seismic events in trench 1(P1),dated between 94.09±6.07 ka and 0.84±0.45 ka,and three events in trench 2(P2),dated between 28.83±1.61 ka and 351±21 BP.Bayesian analysis using Oxcal distribution suggested event timings between 90.52±25.99 ka and 1.25±0.55 ka.Comparative analysis with historical earthquake records correlates the most recent event with the 1789 or 1874 AD earthquakes,while the penultimate event matches the 995 AD earthquake.Earlier events reflect prehistoric tectonic activity.The recurrence intervals for these events range from 710 to 5,370 years during the Holocene,with evidence of seismic activity extending into the Pleistocene.Stress inversion analyses and geodetic data indicate a predominantly strike-slip stress regime,consistent with geometry of the fault.These findings provide critical insights into the long-term seismic behavior and recurrence patterns of the Palu segment,enhancing seismic hazard assessments for the region.

文摘Centrifugal Pumps(CPs)are critical machine components in many industries,and their efficient operation and reliable Fault Diagnosis(FD)are essential for minimizing downtime and maintenance costs.This paper introduces a novel FD method to improve both the accuracy and reliability of detecting potential faults in such pumps.Theproposed method combinesWaveletCoherent Analysis(WCA)and Stockwell Transform(S-transform)scalograms with Sobel and non-local means filters,effectively capturing complex fault signatures from vibration signals.Using Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)for feature extraction,the method transforms these scalograms into image inputs,enabling the recognition of patterns that span both time and frequency domains.The CNN extracts essential discriminative features,which are then merged and passed into a Kolmogorov-Arnold Network(KAN)classifier,ensuring precise fault identification.The proposed approach was experimentally validated on diverse datasets collected under varying conditions,demonstrating its robustness and generalizability.Achieving classification accuracy of 100%,99.86%,and 99.92%across the datasets,this method significantly outperforms traditional fault detection approaches.These results underscore the potential to enhance CP FD,providing an effective solution for predictive maintenance and improving overall system reliability.

文摘Kernel-based slow feature analysis(SFA)methods have been successfully applied in the industrial process fault detection field.However,kernel-based SFA methods have high computational complexity as dealing with nonlinearity,leading to delays in detecting time-varying data features.Additionally,the uncertain kernel function and kernel parameters limit the ability of the extracted features to express process characteristics,resulting in poor fault detection performance.To alleviate the above problems,a novel randomized auto-regressive dynamic slow feature analysis(RRDSFA)method is proposed to simultaneously monitor the operating point deviations and process dynamic faults,enabling real-time monitoring of data features in industrial processes.Firstly,the proposed Random Fourier mappingbased method achieves more effective nonlinear transformation,contrasting with the current kernelbased RDSFA algorithm that may lead to significant computational complexity.Secondly,a randomized RDSFA model is developed to extract nonlinear dynamic slow features.Furthermore,a Bayesian inference-based overall fault monitoring model including all RRDSFA sub-models is developed to overcome the randomness of random Fourier mapping.Finally,the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed monitoring method are demonstrated through a numerical case and a simulation of continuous stirred tank reactor.

文摘The behavior of matrix converter(MC) drive systems under the condition of MC short-circuit faults is comprehensively investigated. Two isolation strategies using semiconductors and high speed fuses(HSFs) for MC short-circuit faults are examined and their performances are compared. The behavior of MC drive systems during the fuse action time under different operating conditions is explored. The feasibility of fault-tolerant operation during the fuse action time is also studied. The basic selection laws for the HSFs and the requirements for the passive components of the MC drive system from the point view of short-circuit faults are also discussed. Simulation results are used to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed isolation strategies.

文摘The Altyn Tagh fault zone(ATFZ),which defines the northern boundary of the Tibetan Plateau,is one of the most striking features related to the India/Eurasia collision.Concurrent with the strike-slip movement,vertical uplift,and topographic building have formed a~3000-4000 m height difference between the Tarim Basin(TB)in the north and the Tibetan Plateau in the south.However,the spatial uplift characteristics and mechanism have not been well understood,particularly in the Late Quaternary.This research presents a comprehensive geomorphic analysis to establish the Late Quaternary tectonic uplift pattern for the entire ATFZ.We statistically excluded climatic and lithological factors that provided prominence for tectonism;combined with leveling data,river incision rate,and seismicity data,we reveal the along-strike and across-fault vertical deformation variations.The spatial distribution of the integrated geomorphic index(IGI)suggests significant differences between the two sides of the ATFZ.The IGI values decrease with slip rates in the northwestern side of the ATF,whereas wave-like in the southeastern side.The significant along-strike deformation difference between the two sides of the ATFZ may cause by differential rheology.These findings are crucial for assessing regional seismic hazards and providing new independent data to understand the Late Quaternary deformation style of the northern boundary of the Tibetan Plateau.

文摘During strike-slip fault dislocation,multiple fault planes are commonly observed.The resulting permanent ground deformation can lead to profound structural damage to tunnels.However,existing analytical models do not consider multiple fault planes.Instead,they concentrate the entire fault displacement onto a single fault plane for analysis,thereby giving rise to notable errors in the calculated results.To address this issue,a refined nonlinear theoretical model was established to analyze the mechanical responses of the tunnels subjected to multiple strike-slip fault dislocations.The analytical model considers the number of fault planes,nonlinear soil‒tunnel interactions,geometric nonlinearity,and fault zone width,leading to a significant improvement in its range of applicability and calculation accuracy.The results of the analytical model are in agreement,both qualitatively and quantitatively,with the model test and numerical results.Then,based on the proposed theoretical model,a sensitivity analysis of parameters was conducted,focusing on the variables such as the number of fault planes,fault plane distance(d),fault displacement ratio(η),burial depth(C),crossing angle(β),tunnel diameter(D),fault zone width(Wf),and strike-slip fault displacement(Δfs).The results show that the peak shear force(Vmax),bending moment(Mmax),and axial force(Nmax)decrease with increasing d.The Vmax of the tunnel is found at the fault plane with the largest fault displacement.C,D,andΔfs contribute to the increases in Vmax,Mmax,and Nmax.Additionally,increasing the number of fault planes reduces Vmax and Mmax,whereas the variation in Nmax remains minimal.

文摘A statistical signal processing technique was proposed and verified as independent component analysis(ICA) for fault detection and diagnosis of industrial systems without exact and detailed model.Actually,the aim is to utilize system as a black box.The system studied is condenser system of one of MAPNA's power plants.At first,principal component analysis(PCA) approach was applied to reduce the dimensionality of the real acquired data set and to identify the essential and useful ones.Then,the fault sources were diagnosed by ICA technique.The results show that ICA approach is valid and effective for faults detection and diagnosis even in noisy states,and it can distinguish main factors of abnormality among many diverse parts of a power plant's condenser system.This selectivity problem is left unsolved in many plants,because the main factors often become unnoticed by fault expansion through other parts of the plants.
文摘Finite Element (FE) modeling under plane stress condition is used to analyze the fault type variation with depth along and around the San Andreas Fault (SAF) zone. In this simulation elastic rheology was used and was thought justifiable as the variation in depth from 0.5 km to 20 km was considered. Series of calculations were performed with the variation in domain properties. Three types of models were created based on simple geological map of California, namely, 1) single domain model considering whole California as one homogeneous domain, 2) three domains model including the North American plate, Pacific plate, and SAF zone as separate domains, and 3) Four domains model including the three above plus the Garlock Fault zone. Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion and Byerlee's law were used for the calculation of failure state. All the models were driven by displacement boundary condition imposing the fixed North American plate and Pacific plate motion along N34°W vector up to the northern terminus of SAF and N50°E vector motion for the subducting the Gorda and Juan de Fuca plates. Our simulated results revealed that as the depth increased, the fault types were generally normal, and at shallow depth greater strike slip and some thrust faults were formed. It is concluded that SAF may be terminated as normal fault at depth although the surface expression is clearly strike slip.

文摘The Taihang Mountain piedmont fault is a large-scale structure zone in north and east China which cross Beijing,with the NE-NNE extent spans approximately 620 km.It is very important to determine the fault zone activity due to the close relation of active structures and earthquakes.Regarding the fault activity,there are three different opinions：1） it is a large deep fault zone;2） it is an active fault zone and an earthquake structure belt;and 3） it is not an earthquake structure belt.In order to ascertain the active character of the fault,the deep tectonic setting and the activity since the Quaternary were investigated using recent seismic and drilling data to make a joint interpretation.The investigation results show that the Taihang Mountain piedmont fault is not a large lithospheric fault because the early middle Pleistocene（Q（P2）） layers are offset by the fault and the late middle Pleistocene（Q（P2）） and late Pleistocene layers are not offset by the fault.We determine that the Taihang Mountain piedmont fault in the area is not an active fault and is also not a large lithospheric fault.This study result provides important geological and geophysical data for city planning and construction in Hebei province and, especially,has great significance for seismic hazard assessment of the capital area.

文摘The tunnel subjected to strike-slip fault dislocation exhibits severe and catastrophic damage.The existing analysis models frequently assume uniform fault displacement and fixed fault plane position.In contrast,post-earthquake observations indicate that the displacement near the fault zone is typically nonuniform,and the fault plane position is uncertain.In this study,we first established a series of improved governing equations to analyze the mechanical response of tunnels under strike-slip fault dislocation.The proposed methodology incorporated key factors such as nonuniform fault displacement and uncertain fault plane position into the governing equations,thereby significantly enhancing the applicability range and accuracy of the model.In contrast to previous analytical models,the maximum computational error has decreased from 57.1%to 1.1%.Subsequently,we conducted a rigorous validation of the proposed methodology by undertaking a comparative analysis with a 3D finite element numerical model,and the results from both approaches exhibited a high degree of qualitative and quantitative agreement with a maximum error of 9.9%.Finally,the proposed methodology was utilized to perform a parametric analysis to explore the effects of various parameters,such as fault displacement,fault zone width,fault zone strength,the ratio of maximum fault displacement of the hanging wall to the footwall,and fault plane position,on the response of tunnels subjected to strike-slip fault dislocation.The findings indicate a progressive increase in the peak internal forces of the tunnel with the rise in fault displacement and fault zone strength.Conversely,an augmentation in fault zone width is found to contribute to a decrease in the peak internal forces.For example,for a fault zone width of 10 m,the peak values of bending moment,shear force,and axial force are approximately 46.9%,102.4%,and 28.7% higher,respectively,compared to those observed for a fault zone width of 50 m.Furthermore,the position of the peak internal forces is influenced by variations in the ratio of maximum fault displacement of the hanging wall to footwall and the fault plane location,while the peak values of shear force and axial force always align with the fault plane.The maximum peak internal forces are observed when the footwall exclusively bears the entirety of the fault displacement,corresponding to a ratio of 0:1.The peak values of bending moment,shear force,and axial force for the ratio of 0:1 amount to approximately 123.8%,148.6%,and 111.1% of those for the ratio of 0.5:0.5,respectively.
文摘Utilising dissolved gases analysis, a new insulation fault diagnosis methodfor power transformers is proposed. This method is based on the group grey relational grade analysismethod. First, according to the fault type and grey reference sequence structure, some typicalfault samples are divided into several sets of grey reference sequences. These sets are structuredas one grey reference sequence group. Secondly, according to a new calculation method of the greyrelational coefficient, the individual relational coefficient and grade are computed. Then accordingto the given calculation method for the group grey relation grade, the group grey relational gradeis computed and the group grey relational grade matrix is structured. Finally, according to therelational sequence, the insulation fault is identified for power transformers. The results of alarge quantity of instant analyses show that the proposed method has higher diagnosis accuracy andreliability than the three-ratio method and the traditional grey relational method. It has goodclassified diagnosis ability and reliability.

文摘The study of the electrical structure and fluid content of the southern San Andreas Fault(SSAF)plays a significant role in understanding the geological processes and earthquake genesis.The paper analyzes the Bahr skew and G-B decomposition from magnetotelluric sounding data in the SSAF to determine the strike direction is north-eastward 135°.Using the Nonlinear Conjugate Gradient algorithm,a reliable 2D electrical structure model was obtained.The Mission Creek and Banning faults,components of the SSAF,exhibit high conductivity within the crust,whereas the Eastern Transverse Ranges to the northeast of the fault show high resistivity characteristics.By integrating the modified Archie's law,the relations between conductivity,temperature,salinity,and fluid content were established,leading to conductivity-temperature and conductivity-fluid content relationships.Combining the results from the electrical structure model and fluid model of the SSAF,it is inferred that the fluid content in the high-conductivity crust reach up to 20%.When the fluid salinity is 10 wt%,the fluid content required to achieve the same high bulk conductivity reduces to 2%.A comparison of the electrical structure and focal depth of the Tan-Lu Fault Zone reveals that the collision between the low-viscosity fluids of the Mission Creek and Banning faults and the rigid Eastern Transverse Ranges contributes to the earthquake in the SSAF.
