///In this paper several main-stream fault-simulation approaches are summarized when international scholars conduct scientific researches in geosciences, especially in seismology and crustal geomorphology using continuum-based numerical method and finite element method, their relevant progress in geosciences are expounded. Generally speaking, the simulation models of geological faults can be categorized into four types: weak zone model, split node model, contact model, and block model.
