An analysis of the response of buried continuous pipelines to active faults has led to development of a design guideline for both onshore and offshore pipelines at fault crossings. A fault movement ...

A recent study published in Nature Geoscience reveals large-scale vertical motion across the San Andreas Fault System. The research team, headed by Samuel Howell at the University of Hawai'i, was able ...

Once IC fabrication is complete, engineers use fault models to create test patterns that detect defects. These fault models are typically abstractions of defect behavior based on our experience and ...

The IDDQ test relies on measuring the supply current (I DD) of an IC’s quiescent state, when the circuit isn’t switching and inputs are held at static values. Test patterns are used to place the ...
