After an unknown fault is detected, the process variables most contributing to the fault can be identified through missing variable analysis.
For the fault length FL contributing to the 'Fault factor' F only two values were considered: 1 if the fault length is smaller than 100 km, 2 if it is larger.
During a DC fault, all interconnected power converters' DC buses severely contribute to the fault current and, due to the low impedance characteristic of DC cables, the direct bus voltages in the MTDC grid are thereby substantially reduced, nearly stopping the power flow.
In a letter to Fujita, Goodell said that while he did not find that Fujita contributed to the bounty pool, he faulted Fujita for not speaking up to put a stop to it.
The unique distribution of chemical constituents contributed to two types of martensitic transformation during the flash process: (a) austenite → α′-martensite transformation dominated at high temperature and contributed to the formation of stacking faults and ε-martensite transformation and (b) austenite → ε-martensite → α′-martensite phase transformation dominated at lower temperature.
"[The task force] must ascertain if organisational faults contributed to the cause of deaths and if all the procedures to guarantee the quality and safety of care were respected," the health ministry said in a statement.
This presumably suggests that these faults contributed to the seismic ruptures of the Mj 7.0 event in some way.
Such a foreshock mainshock rupture pattern is well known for complex fault zones (e.g., King and Nabelek 1985), suggesting that the foreshock activity near the junction between the Hinagu and Futagawa faults contributed to the initiation of the mainshock rupture.
The coseismic slip motion is quite consistent with the orientation of the long-term cumulative displacement, supporting the idea that the normal fault motions have repeated historically on the Yunotake fault, and have contributed to the development of the present-day topography.
All authors contributed to the field survey of landslides or faults.
We interpret the fault system in the seismic profile as a shallow extension of the seismogenic fault that may have contributed to the resulting huge tsunami.
