vertical plane that strikes parallel to the fault. Ring faults, also known as caldera faults, are faults that occur within collapsed volcanic calderas...

dip-slip faults form in a circular pattern around the caldera and are known as ring faults. Ring faults can be either vertical or steeply dipping faults. When...

domains, often called protection rings, are mechanisms to protect data and functionality from faults (by improving fault tolerance) and malicious behavior...

cable. As all fittings on the ring are earthed from both sides, two independent faults are needed to create an 'off earth' fault. The continuity of each conductor...

the "ring fault", develops around the edge of the chamber. Ring fractures serve as feeders for fault intrusions which are also known as ring dikes.: 86–89 ...

mainly to two ore bodies that formed about 1.75 billion years ago along a ring fault in the caldera of an undersea volcano. Tectonic plate movements, plate...

The New Madrid Seismic Zone (NMSZ), sometimes called the New Madrid Fault Line, is a major seismic zone and a prolific source of intraplate earthquakes...

an electric power system, a fault or fault current is any abnormal electric current. For example, a short circuit is a fault in which a live wire touches...

The Ring of Fire (also known as the Pacific Ring of Fire, the Rim of Fire, the Girdle of Fire or the Circum-Pacific belt) is a tectonic belt of volcanoes...

of ring faults surrounded by concentric normal faults around the outside of the rings. During initial formation of the caldera these ring faults provide...

residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is an electrical safety device that interrupts...

An arc-fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) or arc-fault detection device (AFDD) is a circuit breaker that breaks the circuit when it detects the electric...

Incorporated (MTI). In 1986, an O-ring fault in an MTI SRB destroyed Space Shuttle Challenger in flight. The company was found at fault for the destruction of Challenger...

underneath another. The earthquakes are caused by slip along the thrust fault that forms the contact between the two plates. These interplate earthquakes...

fracture, the ring fault, develops around the edge of the chamber. The centre of the volcano within the ring fracture collapses, creating a ring-shaped depression...

allows channels to be dropped and added at each node along the daisy-chain or ring. Although the number of channels between any two locations is limited to...

Cascadia to more active subduction zones elsewhere in the Ring of Fire. They found similarities to faults in Chile, Alaska, and Japan's Nankai Trough, locations...

An engagement ring, also known as a betrothal ring, is a ring indicating that the person wearing it is engaged to be married, especially in Western cultures...

terrace-like ring trough with an outer edge of collapsed blocks forming ring faults.[citation needed] The entire circular crater is about 85 km (53 mi) in...
