This is an important correlation as geophysical logging is much easier, faster, and more efficient than cutting spot cores (as the core for this study was obtained), and so the development of empirical correlations to constrain strength such as that seen in Figure 11B can help mitigate risk and reduce the cost associated with geothermal drilling programs.
The space of feasible solutions is constrained by strength, displacements, global and local buckling and geometric conditions.
The use of few-item criterion measures may have constrained the strength of the associations between these criterion measures and the six separate factors of PMH.
3) In these experiments, the stability of both basal and long-term facilitated synaptic strength over days suggests a homeostatic mechanism that specifies net synaptic strength, rather than constraining the strength of individual synaptic connections.
The problem is further complicated by the fact that most methods employed to estimate in situ stress magnitudes require independent datasets to constrain rock strength.
Exhumed fault zones are helpful to constrain fault strength and the deformation of foliated cataclasites formed at middle crustal depths over geological time.
This quantitative relationship constrains the strength at plate boundaries to 3 75 MPa, which is consistent with several seismological observations, including those from the NE Japan arc associated with the 2011 Tohoku earthquake.
Constraining the strength, the spatial distribution and secular variation of the toroidal component of the geomagnetic field are essentially important to understand not only the dynamics of the geodynamo but also the electromagnetic (EM) core-mantle coupling, one of the possible mechanisms of decadal variation in the length of day (LOD) (Morrison [1979]).
Because matrices of alpha and sigma parameters are calculated, the models do not constrain selection strength and the random drift disturbances to be isotropic in shape space.
As the porous structure of our medium mainly consists of pores (instead of cracks), we tested the applicability of the pore-emanated crack model to constrain compressive strength of porous lava [ Sammis and Ashby, 1986].
