Aftershock Patterns and Main Shock Faulting
We have compared aftershock patterns following several moderate to large earthquakes with the corresponding distributions of coseismic slip obtained from previous analyses of the recorded strong ground motion and teleseismic waveforms. Well-located aftershock hypocenters are projected onto the main shock fault plane, and their positions are examined relative to the zones of coseismic displaceme...
متن کاملGray Codes Faulting Matchings
A (cyclic) n-bit Gray code is a (cyclic) ordering of all 2 binary strings of length n such that consecutive strings differ in a single bit. Equivalently, an nbit Gray code can be viewed as a Hamiltonian path of the n-dimensional hypercube Qn, and a cyclic Gray code as a Hamiltonian cycle of Qn. In this paper we study Hamiltonian paths and cycles of Qn avoiding a given set of faulty edges that f...
متن کاملBookshelf faulting in Nicaragua
Oblique subduction at a high rate of convergence along much of the Middle America Trench results in northwest-directed trench-parallel block motion. Accommodation of this motion along northwest-striking dextral strike-slip faults has been postulated; however, in Nicaragua such faults are not well developed. We suggest instead that this motion is accommodated by bookshelf faulting that includes ...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Near-Fault Ground Motions by Dynamic Thrust Faulting: Two-Dimensional Lattice Particle Approaches
Two-dimensional lattice particle models have been used to simulate dynamic thrust faulting and its effects on near-fault ground motions. The lattice particle modeling approach has been demonstrated as an efficient way to model the dynamic rupture phenomena observed from a foam rubber experiment on dipping faults. We constructed a 42 dipping fault model to simulate near-fault ground motions unde...
متن کاملFolding and faulting of an elastic continuum
Folding is a process in which bending is localized at sharp edges separated by almost undeformed elements. This process is rarely encountered in Nature, although some exceptions can be found in unusual layered rock formations (called 'chevrons') and seashell patterns (for instance Lopha cristagalli). In mechanics, the bending of a three-dimensional elastic solid is common (for example, in bulk ...
