Sentence examples for fault extension from inspiring English sources

These decorrelation and steep gradient lines must correspond to the upper margins of faults or intersection lines of a fault extension and the land surface.

Furthermore, the decorrelation line along the Futagawa Fault and the steep gradient line along the Hinagu Fault correspond to the upper margins of faults or the intersection line of a fault extension and land surface, and we constrained the fault locations so that a fault extension was consistent with that.

Based on this analysis, a partial dislocation mechanism is proposed that allows explanation of partial unfaulting, stacking fault extension, and twin formation, previously observed during plastic deformation of irradiated austenitic stainless steel.

By establishing the interaction forces that lead to this defect configuration, our analysis shows that the relief of intrinsic strain at the junction corners, which results from the incompatibility of the translation states at the intersecting boundaries, is sufficient to stabilize the stacking fault extension.

The fault extension-induced evolution exerts a primary control on sedimentation, controlling both fluid flow and creating sites of deposition (Gawthorpe and Leeder 2000; Mack et al. 2009; Lorna et al. 2013).

See also legend in Fig. 2. The * represents the Ichinose fault depth extension after Ikeda et al. (2009).

Footwall of major fault during extension clear at the bottom with some distorted i e chaotic are shows (maybe) due to gas trap reflection.

Our results demonstrate uplift along the major fault during extension indicated by chaotic distortion at the bottom, which reveals a gas trap.

Depending on fault geometry, extension rate and parameters controlling erosion and sediment deposition, the slip rate of the normal fault is up to ~ 15% higher when surface processes are taken into account.

In the seismic sections, the Proterozoic basement in the southeast is mostly featureless, except for large rotated blocks with weakly reflective boundary faults, indicating extension of the Tyennan Element by block faulting.

The reverse faults formed during the various orogenies were partly reactivated as normal faults in extension during the Mesozoic Era as the supercontinent Pangaea broke apart.
