If we conceived similarly of strict liability in tort, we would then understand fault liability, incorrectly, as liability that is defeasible by excuses that establish the absence of culpability, in other words, as liability (only) for one's culpable conduct.
We examined the architecture of the MTL at a large new outcrop in order to understand fault behaviours under different crustal levels.
Examination of fault rocks exhumed from various depths in subduction zones is essential in order to understand fault slip behaviors such as dynamic earthquake rupture, low-frequency tremor and earthquakes, slow slip events, and post-seismic and interseismic creep.
As faults can be barriers to or conduits for fluid flow, it is critical to understand fault seal processes and their effects on the sealing capacity of a fault zone.
To better understand fault zone architecture and fluid flow in mesoscale fault zones, we studied normal faults in chalks with displacements up to 20 m, at two representative localities in Flamborough Head (UK).
Further studies are necessary to understand faulting here in the accretionary prism and to evaluate the potential for a tsunami-generating earthquake near the trench.
Scientists rushed to better understand faults after a previously unknown fault caused the devastating 1994 Northridge earthquake.
In this paper, we evaluate the neotectonic activity along a part of the seismically active but poorly understood Narmada Son Fault (NSF), a more than 1000 km long ENE WSW trending fault transecting through the central part of the Indian plate.
We understood the fault line between those two visions of society: the one in which you parade your morals with rigorous self-discipline and concrete, measurable ambitions versus the one in which both morals and ambitions were for losers – and chose the second.
These fallacies are perhaps better understood as faults of explanation than faults of arguments.
