Fault friction — describes the relation of friction to fault mechanics. Rock failure and associated earthquakes are very much a fractal operation (see Characteristic earthquakes). The process remains scale invariant down to the smallest crystal. Thus, the… … Wikipedia

Fault current — A fault current is an abnormal current in an electric circuit due to a fault (usually a short circuit or abnormally low impedance path).In terms of installation wiring, the prospective short circuit current must be known as it influences the… … Wikipedia
Hayward Fault Zone — The Hayward Fault Zone is a geologic fault zone capable of generating significantly destructive earthquakes. About 60 kilometers long, it lies mainly along the western base of the hills on the east side of San Francisco Bay. It runs through… … Wikipedia
San Andreas Fault — The San Andreas Fault is a geologic transform fault that runs a length of roughly 800 miles (1,300 km) through California in the United States. The fault s motion is right lateral strike slip (horizontal motion). It forms the tectonic boundary… … Wikipedia
Calaveras Fault — Note that Diablo Fault and Mount Diablo Fault redirect here. The Calaveras Fault is a major branch of the San Andreas Fault located in northern California in the San Francisco Bay Area. It runs east of the San Andreas, diverging from it in the… … Wikipedia
Garlock Fault — The Garlock Fault is a left lateral strike slip fault line running approximately northeast southwest in southern California. It runs for much of its length along the southern base of the Tehachapi Mountains. It marks the northern boundary of the… … Wikipedia
Chaman Fault — The Chaman Fault is a major, active geological fault in Pakistan and Afghanistan that runs for over 850 km.[1] Tectonically, it is actually a system of related geologic faults that separates the Eurasian Plate from the Indo Australian Plate. It… … Wikipedia
