Because P and S waves travel at different but fairly constant speeds, the interval between their arrivals increases in proportion to the distance from the earthquake focus, or initial rupture point.
由于 P 波和 S 波以不同但相当恒定的速度传播,它们到达的间隔与到震源或初始破裂点的距离成比例地增加。
This is considered a point of pre-rupture, since it is a matter of time before effort is abandoned.
这是关系破裂的临界点,因为没有努力的支撑,其迟早要发生。
Their faults are often very complex and slow-moving, sometimes taking hundreds or even thousands of years to build up tension to the point where they rupture.
那里的断层通常很复杂,而且移动缓慢,有时要花几百年甚至上千年来积攒压力,直到它们发生断裂的那一点。
