Sentence examples for fault activation from inspiring English sources

We conducted three-dimensional coupled fluid-flow and geomechanical modeling of fault activation and seismicity associated with hydraulic fracturing stimulation of a shale-gas reservoir.

Fracturing, fault activation and leakage of brine along pathways such as abandoned wells occur at various threshold fluid pressures, so operators and regulators will be concerned with pressure elevation at considerable distances from the injection well.

As the domains are different in different regions of the World, the chronological definition cannot be univocal; i.e., different criteria are needed to define fault activity, which will depend on the characteristics of the local tectonic domain and of the related recurrence times of fault activation.

This model addresses the effects of the diffuse fluid pressure increase, and is useful for engineered applications such as the injection of fluid into a reservoir that may cause an increase of fluid pressure beneath a caprock, and for sedimentary sequences during normal digenetic processes of burial and fault activation.

Also, overlying rock unloading results in fault development, early fault activation, and expansion, which further exacerbates destroy of oil and gas reservoir in Dingshan block of southeastern Sichuan, China.

Proposed design of downside scenarios of faults activation intersecting with the pipeline, with the greatest possible earthquakes according to the potential of the fault, which includes assessment of potential ground deformations, corresponds to subsequent failures of pipeline and induced environmental impacts.

To assess our model, some numerical examples are presented, showing typical features of hydraulic fracture phenomenon, including the characterization of the fault-activation pressure and specific crack path growth, allowing for kinking and bifurcations.

Consequently, for the provided input, the majority voter is able to tolerate the software fault whose activation has led to failure of one of the variants.

The timing characteristics that have been successfully discovered are in relation to the relay trip assertion activity, impedance element activation, fault characteristics, circuit breaker operation and its overall decision system approximation.

The physical effects of stress variations, like porosity/permeability changes and faults re-activation, cannot be neglected due to its direct link with the performance of the reservoir formation as well as safety, especially with respect to formations that are very sensitive to stress (Kim et al. 2013).

The model is able to predict, based on the difference in the stacking fault energies, the activation of TRIP and/or TWIP deformation mechanisms at different temperatures.
