Journal ArticleDOI
The Fracture Energy of Earthquakes
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Keylis-Borok relationship to evaluate the fracture energy of a semi-infinite longitudinal shear crack and found that fresh fracture was associated with 10'-lQ9 erg cm-2 while frictional rupture with 103-107 erg cm -2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elastic Dislocations in a Layered Half-Space—I. Basic Theory and Numerical Methods
TL;DR: A general computational procedure for the evaluation of the integral expressions for the surface displacements due to an arbitrary point dislocation source in a layered medium is described in this paper, which is shown to be rapid and inexpensive to use, and its accuracy appears to be entirely adequate for practical purposes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elastic Dislocations in a Layered Half‐Space–II The Point Source
TL;DR: In this article, the static displacement and strain fields caused by the introduction of a shear dislocation point source into a layered elastic half space have been evaluated using a Thomson-Haskell matrix method (Singh).
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of earth layering on earthquake displacement fields
TL;DR: In this article, the displacement fields due to a very long vertical strike-slip fault are calculated for earth models consisting of two layers over a half-space, and it is shown that if zones of low rigidity are present beneath the Earth9s surface, they will result in an amplification of the displacement field observed at the Earth 9s surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Inversion Method for Estimating the Source Parameters of Seismic and Aseismic Events from Static Strain Data
TL;DR: In this paper, an inversion method is developed for estimating the source parameters of seismic and aseismic events from static strain data, which is quite stable if the strain fields are modelled by a point source in a homogeneous halfspace.
