Seismic wave attenuation of the crust and upper mantle in the Himalaya and South-Central Tibetan Plateau

Creator:: Monigle, Patrick W.
Abstract:: Recent geophysical and geological investigations of the Tibetan plateau have given rise to conflicting models of plateau growth and deformation, where the presence and extent of partial melt in the crust could be a determining factor. Here we investigate the attenuation structure of the crust and upper mantle, as attenuation...

Investigation of Slip and Tectonics of the Blanco Transform Fault using High-resolution Ocean Bottom Seismic Data

Creator:: Kuna, Václav M.
Abstract:: The dissertation concentrates on seismicity of the Blanco Transform Fault (BTF), a 350-km-long oceanic transform fault (OTF) in the northeast Pacific Ocean. I analyze data collected during the Blanco Transform Fault OBS experiment, which comprised of a 1-year deployment of 55 three-component seismometers co-located with differential pressure gauges on and...

Plate boundary deformation of the Pacific plate : two case studies

Creator:: Leitner, Beate
Abstract:: Two examples of Pacific rim plate boundary deformation are presented. In the first part of the thesis crustal models are derived for the northwestern part of the Vizcaino block in California using marine seismic and gravity data collected by the Mendocino Triple Junction Seismic Experiment. A northwest-southeast trending kink in...

Seismotectonics of the explorer region and of the Blanco Transform Fault Zone

Creator:: Braunmiller, Jochen
Abstract:: In this thesis, we present the first detailed, long-term seismotectonic studies of oceanic ridge-transform systems. The proximity of the Juan de Fuca plate to a network of broadband seismic stations in western North America provides a unique synergy of interesting tectonic targets, high seismicity, and recording capabilities. Our main tools...

Transdermal Delivery of Atenolol to Cats

Creator:: Mohamed, Sumeia M.
Abstract:: This thesis describes in-vitro and in-vivo evaluation of a transdermal atenolol formulation developed at Oregon State University, College of Pharmacy. The formulation was prepared from carbomer as a gel base with propylene glycol, glycerol, ethanol, polysorbate 80 and dimethyl-isosorbide (DMI) as mixture of penetration enhancing agents. The effect of the...

Pipelined multiprocessor computer architecture and fast parallel algorithms for real-time robot control

Creator:: Mun, Wangjin
Abstract:: As a result of the automation revolution, robots are assuming ever more complex and demanding tasks. Robot system control schemes for fast and precise robot motion require utilization of the entirety of the robot dynamic formulations and the ability to evaluate these formulations in real-time. The dynamic formulations, which take...

Acoustic monitoring of earthquakes along the Blanco Transform Fault Zone and Gorda plate and their tectonic implications

Creator:: Dziak, Robert P.
Abstract:: Hydroacoustic tertiary (T-) waves are seismically generated acoustic waves that propagate over great distances in the ocean sound channel with little loss in signal strength. Hydrophone recorded T-waves can provide a lower earthquake detection threshold and an improved epicenter location accuracy for oceanic earthquakes than land-based seismic networks. Thus detection...

Diffuse deformation patterns along the North American plate boundary zone, offshore western United States

Creator:: Chaytor, Jason D.
Abstract:: Plate boundaries are commonly regions of complex, diffuse deformation with the motion across the boundary accommodated by numerous structural systems, rather than being narrow, discrete zones of deformation. One such boundary occurs where the North American plate makes contact with Juan de Fuca, Gorda, and Pacific plates along the west...

Active tectonics of the Kashmir Himalaya (NW India) and earthquake potential on folds, out-of-sequence thrusts, and duplexes

Creator:: Gavillot, Yann G.
Abstract:: Active tectonics of a deformation front constrains the kinematic evolution and structural interaction between the fold-thrust belt and the most-recently accreted foreland basin. At the Himalayan deformation front, the thrust front is blind, characterized by a broad fold (the Suruin-Mastgarh anticline (SMA)), and displays no emergent faults cutting the southern...
