English term or phrase: failure

SEISMICITY FROM SHALE GAS OPERATIONS

(...) Very small to moderate sized seismic events can be induced in the earth when large volumes of water or other fluids are disposed of in the vicinity of faults that have pre-existing stress, such that they are on the verge of moving (“failure”). The injected fluids can affect the stress state or reduce friction on the plane of the fault, causing it to fail.
