Fault Fling Step

Fault Fling Step is a geophysical phenomenon in seismology characterized by the sudden static displacement of the ground surface adjacent to a rupturing fault due to tectonic slip, distinguished from dynamic shaking by its permanent, step-like deformation recorded in strong ground motion data.
