Source time function properties indicate a strain drop independent of earthquake depth and magnitude.
The movement of tectonic plates leads to strain build-up in the Earth, which can be released during earthquakes when one side of a seismic fault suddenly slips with respect to the other. The amount of seismic strain release (or 'strain drop') is thus a direct measurement of a basic earthquake property, that is, the ratio of seismic slip over the dimension of the ruptured fault. Here the analysi...
متن کاملMicrolensing optical depth as a function of source apparent magnitude
Measurements of the microlensing optical depth τ towards the Galactic bulge appear to depend on the method used to obtain them. Those values based on the lensing of red clump giants (RCGs) appear to be significantly lower than those based on the lensing of all stars along the line of sight. This discrepancy is still not understood. Through Monte Carlo simulations, it is found that the discrepan...
متن کاملEarthquake Repeat Time and Average Stress Drop
Existing data on source parameters of large crustal earthquakes (subduction events are not considered here) over a wide range of repeat imes indicate that, for a given magnitude (Ms or Mw), earthquakes with long repeat times have shorter fault lengths than those with short repeat imes. A shorter fault length for a given magnitude indicates a larger average stress drop which reflects the average...
متن کاملProperties of Dynamic Earthquake Ruptures With Heterogeneous Stress Drop
Earthquake rupture is a notoriously complex process, at all observable scales. We introduce a simplified semi-dynamic crack model to investigate the connection between the statistical properties of stress and those of macroscopic source parameters such as rupture size, seismic moment, apparent stress drop and radiated energy. Rupture initiation is treated consistently with nucleation on a linea...
متن کاملsome properties of fuzzy hilbert spaces and norm of operators
in this thesis, at first we investigate the bounded inverse theorem on fuzzy normed linear spaces and study the set of all compact operators on these spaces. then we introduce the notions of fuzzy boundedness and investigate a new norm operators and the relationship between continuity and boundedness. and, we show that the space of all fuzzy bounded operators is complete. finally, we define...
