Fault (geology)

In geology a fault, or fault line, is a planar rock fracture which shows evidence of relative movement. Large faults within the Earth's crust are the result of differential or shear motion and active fault zones are the causal locations of most earthquakes. Earthquakes are caused by energy release during rapid slippage along a fault. A fault which runs along the boundary between two tectonic plates is called a transform fault.
Since faults do not usually consist of a single, clean fracture, the term fault zone is used when referring to the zone of complex deformation that is associated with the fault plane. The two sides of a non-vertical fault are called the hanging wall and footwall. By definition, the hanging wall occurs above the fault and the footwall occurs below the fault. This terminology comes from mining. When working a tabular ore body the miner stood with the footwall under his feet and with the hanging wall hanging above him.

Faille

En géologie, une faille est un plan ou une zone de rupture le long duquel la déformation est cisaillante. Ce plan divise un volume rocheux en deux compartiments qui ont glissé l'un par rapport à l'autre. Ce déplacement et la déformation cisaillante sont dus aux forces exercées par les contraintes tectoniques, qui résultent de la tectonique des plaques, et à leur interaction avec les forces de volume telles que la gravité.
Les failles existent depuis l'échelle microscopique (millimétrique) jusqu'à celle des plaques tectoniques (plusieurs centaines de kilomètres). Les grandes failles se trouvent aux limites de plaques et aussi au sein des zones déformées intraplaques.
Les failles actives sont responsables de la majorité des tremblements de terre. Ceux ci sont dus au glissement rapide (quelques secondes à quelques dizaines de secondes) sur le plan de faille lors du brusque relâchement des contraintes accumulées de façon élastique pendant une longue période intersismique.

Falha geológica

Uma Falha geológica, ou simplesmente falha é uma superfície num volume de rocha onde se observa deslocamento relativo dos blocos paralelo à fratura.
A extensão da falha varia entre centenas de quilômetros a poucos centímetros. O plano de falha é a superfície da fratura onde se observa deslocamento relativo entre blocos, e suas dimensões também podem variar de forma ampla.
No caso das falhas não verticais, o bloco situado acima do plano de falha é chamado de capa ou teto, enquanto o que fica abaixo é chamado de muro ou lapa
As falhas têm ângulos de inclinação diversos, em função desta diversidade, são classificadas como:
• Falhas inclinadas.
• Falhas horizontais
• Falhas verticais.

Falla
Una falla, en geología, es una discontinuidad que se forma en las rocas superficiales de la Tierra (hasta unos 200 km de profundidad) por fractura, cuando las fuerzas tectónicas superan la resistencia de las rocas. La zona de ruptura tiene una superficie generalmente bien definida denominada plano de falla y su formación va acompañada de un deslizamiento de las rocas tangencial a este plano.
El movimiento causante de la dislocación puede tener diversas direcciones: vertical, horizontal o una combinación de ambas. En las masas montañosas que se han alzado por movimiento de fallas, el desplazamiento puede ser de miles de metros y muestra el efecto acumulado, durante largos periodos, de pequeños e imperceptibles desplazamientos, en vez de un gran levantamiento único. Sin embargo, cuando la actividad en una falla es repentina y brusca, se puede producir un gran terremoto, e incluso una ruptura de la superficie terrestre, generando una forma topográfica llamada escarpe de falla.

Faglia

La faglia è una frattura (planare o non planare) della roccia che mostra evidenze di movimento relativo tra le due masse rocciose da essa divise. La superficie lungo cui si è verificata la frattura si chiama superficie di faglia oppure piano di faglia. Le rocce in prossimità di una faglia risultano spesso intensamente frantumate e si parla in questo caso di rocce di faglia quali le cataclasiti o le miloniti.
