In both cases, the fault is reported (report function) and-in the case of the arms-the arms are mechanically locked into their current state (lock function).
I'm sorry it's my fault. I accidentally locked them in the car last night when I came home.
对不起，是我的错。我昨晚回家时不小心把它们锁到车里了。

Two intersecting faults promote and restrain each other during deformation. One fault may make the other be locked for strain accumulation and may trigger slip along it.
