Sentence examples for a weak zone of from inspiring English sources

In these models, we were able to obtain the well-known three-branch configuration of the Baikal rift system only by introducing a weak zone in the area of Lake Baikal.

After examining interseismic strain anomalies and the coseismic deformation of the 2011 earthquake in NE Japan, Ohzono et al. (2012b) proposed a weak zone below the tens of kilometers wide Ou-backbone range, in the vicinity of the arc.

The nearly north south alignment, indicated from the hypocenters of post-Tohoku seismicity and low-frequency earthquakes (Fig. 7), suggests that magma ascended slightly along a weak zone, namely the source regions of the post-Tohoku earthquakes, including a Mw 5.9 fault and low-frequency earthquakes, similar to transform-parallel dikes (Gudmundsson 2007).

Since fracture is a weak zone, its presence can facilitate failure of the proposed road especially when it is occurring at shallow depth.
