Sentence examples for fault initiation from inspiring English sources

Each of these fault initiation processes produces different initial fault geometry and spatial heterogeneity that influence such properties as fault permeability and seismogenesis.

The continuity of micas within the foliation also influences the micromechanics of fault initiation.

Initial DSF topography coincides with the earliest Red Sea MORB's and the East Anatolian fault initiation.

We propose a joint based model for dilational fault initiation and growth.

The third style of fault initiation requires the development of a shear zone, which may change local mechanical properties and lead to faulting.

We demonstrate that large-scale discrete shear zones act as a long-lived structural template for fault initiation during multiple phases of rifting.

The similar timing of convergent uplifts along the San Andreas Fault with the initiation of the sub-parallel San Jacinto Fault suggest a possible link between the two tectonic events.

Basin initiation faults coincide with deeper paleorift faults and are thus interpreted as reactivations of the older Statherian Araí Rift.

Results from both stratigraphic and gravimetric surveys show strong evidence of mechanical subsidence by faulting during basin initiation.

Four circular domain features were shown to consistently and clearly identify the onset (initiation) of fault from the peak feature value which is not clearly observable in time domain features.

Our findings have important implications for understanding spatial relationship between the source faults of the largest foreshock and mainshock, or between fault geometries and rupture initiation points.
