But major fault lines exist at the plate ' s edge , where sudden jolts have wreaked massive devastation 不过主要的断层带位于这个板块的边缘，地震时，由于这个地区瞬间产生的拉力太过强大，才会造成这麽严重的破坏。
But they were puzzled when the tsunami - producing event of december 2004 originated in the upper part of this region , just northwest of sumatra 但是2004年12月，发生在断层带上端、苏门答腊西北方的地震，却让科学家感到困惑。

On one side of the fault band , snap - back occurs due to the sharp recovery of elastic strain in strain - softening process , indicating the unstable failure 在断层带左侧，由于在系统承载能力降低的过程中，弹性应变的快速恢复，出现了快速回跳现象（系统失稳） 。
Exact forecast of fault discussed in the paper offers the proper time for shifting of working methods and ensures the successful pass through faults 同时结合断层的超前预报，准确的预报断层的位置，为断层带施工方法的变换提供了准确的时机，得以顺利通过断层。
The area sits over massive fault lines whose dangers have been highlighted by a startling new scientific discipline that combines earth science studies and analysis of ancient legends 这个地点坐落在大量断层带上，其危险性藉著结合地球科学研究和古代传说分析的惊人新学科而更为突出。
The silent earthquakes may then take place when a batch of fluid from the slab is working its way up ? as the fluid passes , it will unclamp the fault zone a little bit , perhaps allowing some slow slip 这是因为当水通过断层带的片刻，会微微地摇撼一下断层带，这或许就是引发轻微滑动的原因。
The research result shows that this physical model is useful to determine the locked area along plate boundary faults and further to make the long term and middle term earthquake prediction 研究结果表明，运用该模型方法可利用大地测量数据确定沿板块边界断层带的相对闭锁区，从而进行中长期地震预报。
The existence of silent earthquakes gives scientists a completely new angle on the slip process by permitting the detailed study of fault zones through every stage of their movement 然而，无声地震的存在却提供科学家一个全新的角度，来看待断层滑动的过程，让他们对断层带运动的每个阶段做更仔细的研究。
