断层

• It is apparent that a strong causal relationship exists between faults and earthquakes .
  显然，在断层和地震之间存在着密切的因果关系。
• It appears to be a sharp anticline with a strong suggestion of faulting on one side .
  它看来象是在一边有着明显的断层迹象的陡峭的背斜。
• If they do not, previously unsuspected faulting could account for the misclosure .
  如果他们不这样，尚未发现的断层可能就是造成不闭合的原因。
• The most common structural targets associated with oil entrapment are anticlines and faults .
  与储油圈闭有关的最一般的构造目标是背斜和断层。
• One mode is slippage along the discontinuity provided by the lubricated fault plane .
  其中一种方式是沿着润滑的断层面所形成的间断面而发生滑动。
• Such faults are straight over long distances and the fault plane is nearly vertical .
  这种断层笔直地延伸到很远的地方，而且断层面几乎是垂直的。
• Faults can be ranged into two principal types which are caused by either tension or compression .
  断层可分为两种主要类型，即张力断层和挤压断层。
• Its behaviour is dominated by discontinuities such as faults, joints and bedding planes .
  它的性态是由像断层、节理和层面等这样一类不连续面控制的。
• The core of the anticlinal fold, which is squeezed between faults, underwent intense crushing .
  背斜褶皱的核部在断层间受到挤压，遭受到很强的破坏。
• The case shown in figure 56 corresponds to a dextral horizontal displacement along a vertical fault surface .
  图56所示例子表示沿垂直断层面的右旋水平位移。
