On the other hand, advances in computer technology and embedded sensing systems in different domains have made it possible to collect a variety of data in huge volume at an unbelievable velocity, which provides an opportunity and at the same time a challenge to engineers and practitioners to utilize this rich source of information efficiently. Functional data as a rich form of structured data allows for high dimensionality modeling and analysis of the data. In this paper, we develop a fully functional linear regression model to quantify and predict the quality of the process outputs by reducing the number of destructive tests and presenting a change-point detection model to avoid using the model when a change has occurred in one of the components of the process. Important issues such as autocorrelation and correlation are taken into account in the presented model. The functional variables of the model are solved by polynomial basis function expansions. The results of the experimental tests indicate that the proposed method performs well in detecting out-of-control conditions as well as estimating the change-point location.

The slip surface of the fault is frictionally heterogeneous. It contains weakening zones (asperities), strengthening zones (barriers), and “background” zones that are almost neutral with respect to velocity and displacement. The scenario of a seismogenic rupture is determined precisely by the presence, number, and size of such zones with different dynamics of frictional characteristics. The study deals with the mechanics of supershear earthquakes, in which the rupture propagates with an unusually high velocity exceeding the shear wave velocity of the medium. Numerical simulation results confirm the existence of two different mechanisms governing the transition of an earthquake to the supershear regime. A model of the so-called “weak” fault is considered, for which the rupture velocity continuously increases from the sub-Rayleigh velocity <i>C</i><sub>R</sub> to the shear wave velocity <i>C</i><sub>s</sub> and quickly exceeds it without any jump. This scenario is typical for faults with the measure of strength <i>S</i> under 0.8. The solved problem is not only of fundamental importance for understanding the earthquake mechanics, but also can find application in engineering seismology and the study of earthquake-induced rupture processes, because unlike an ordinary earthquake, supershear or fast ruptures cause strong shaking at a much greater distance from the source of the event (from the fault).

Many experimental and computational studies suggest that these distributions can be approximated by a normal distribution. The normal distribution parameters are determined from histogram-like plots obtained experimentally or by computer simulation. Most published histogram distributions are highly skewed, in contrast to the normal distribution. Here we present a new direct calculation method for the probability densities of the elastic strain tensor components. The method uses an integral equation for strains in heterogeneous solids, which reduces the solution of the boundary value problem of polycrystal deformation to the sum of solutions of some problems for neighboring grains. The focus is on the influence of random grain interactions on the strain distribution. Calculations are carried out for polycrystals with different elastic symmetries and degrees of grain anisotropy. All probability densities are finite, asymmetric, and noticeably different from Gaussian ones.
