Sentence examples for Causative fault from inspiring English sources

Such a parameter is related to the angular leverage of the forces that produce the slip on the causative fault.

In the 1976 Tangshan earthquake, for example, a surface strike-slip of about one metre was observed along the causative fault east of Beijing, and in the 1999 Taiwan earthquake the Chelung-pu fault slipped up to eight metres vertically.

The area is slightly far from the causative fault.

Usually the seismic landslide density along the causative fault is uniform.

Also, the distance from the causative fault and the type of directivity are taken into consideration.

We also test both nodal planes of the initial CMT solution to account for the uncertainty over which describes the causative fault.

These stations are located in the southwestern area more than 100 km from the causative faults.

We apply the short-period spectral level of the acceleration source spectrum for causative faults to estimate the equivalent asperity radius in the total-L model.

Because the permanent displacement or near-field term in such near-fault ground motions is generally sensitive to the locations and minute geometry of causative faults and attenuates rapidly with distance (e.g., Hisada and Bielak 2003), more detailed modeling of surface breaking faults at shallow depths is necessary to improve ground motion modeling in near-fault areas.

Further surveys on imaging causative source faults beneath the surface are necessary to investigate the relationship between the surface ruptures and the geometry of earthquake source faults.

"An association is not necessarily causative".
