Sentence examples for large scale fault from inspiring English sources

The problem with these active error correction schemes is that they were devised for a very unrealistic noise model which treats the computer as quantum and the environment as classical (Alicki, Lidar & Zanardi 2006) Once a more realistic noise model is allowed, the feasibility of large scale, fault tolerant and computationally superior quantum computers is less clear (Hagar 2009).

We find that small-scale faulting and fracturing at Yucca Mountain is variable and is strongly controlled by larger scale fault system architecture.

Thus, damage zones of large-scale fault zones are prime targets for geothermal exploration.

The deep rooting favoured a large-scale fault propagation type of folding, whereas shallow-seated rooting favoured a small-scale fault propagation type of folding and block rotations.

Regardless of frequently-occurring M 7.5 events in this area, it is significant that a large-scale fault heterogeneity corresponding to a M 9 event had not been clearly recognized until this earthquake.

Caused by tectonic processes related to the continental collision of Europe and Africa, large-scale fault zones occur in the Molasse Basin and the Alps (Schmid et al. 2004a, b).

The flow properties of the model were then upscaled to simulate the entire reservoir through combining the flow properties of the jointed matrix (represented by an equivalent permeability tensor) with those of the large-scale fault system (which was modelled explicitly) in a dual-permeability system.

It assumes that the main control on fracture generation is the strain perturbation around large-scale faults.

Those fractures may span from micron-scale microfractures to large-scale faults that span tens to hundreds of meters (Aguilera 1995).

Due to the structural history of this area, the fracture system is also well developed in the sedimentary pile overlying the granite, including small-scale fractures and large-scale faults.

There, complex permeable fracture zones are most likely connected to large-scale faults and small-scale fracture networks at the sediment-basement interface and control the top of the thermal convection loop.
