For a specific critical area, create N marginally stable simulation cases using a sequence of line faults.
The basic steps of this flowchart are: Fig. 1 Flowchart for system instability assessment (1) For a specific critical area, create N marginally stable simulation cases using a sequence of line faults.
In addition, to provide a high degree of fault-tolerance, we ensure our approach is self-stabilizing, that is, it returns to a normal operating state after a finite sequence of faults.
A sequence of single rectangular fault model inversions is continued for 5 min.
Using the same approach as in [7] to create the marginally stable cases, a sequence of three-phase line faults is used in this case to drive the interface between area "0" and "1" to its marginally stable point.
The fault-mitigative behaviors, analogous to autonomous biological systems, are characterized as (1) reflex actions highly autonomous, localized, and uncoordinated response emanating from a single fault manager at any level of hierarchy, and (2) healing actions highly coordinated behavior implemented with a sequence of interactions between multiple fault managers.
The occurrence of a sequence of displacements along a normal fault would produce a series of triangular facets (Hamblin, 1976; Fenton et al., 2003) (Fig. 5(D)).
They said there seemed to be no single fault or sequence of faults readily explaining the communications failure.
There are concerns that 12 January earthquake could be the beginning of a new long-term sequence: "the whole region is fearful"; historical accounts, although not precise, suggest that there has been a sequence of quakes progressing westwards along the fault, starting with an earthquake in the Dominican Republic in 1751.
The earthquakes on such hybrid faults usually come in bunches, a sequence of temblors which we call a cluster.
