The earthquake source process seems to be extremely sensitive to small variations in the initial conditions (as are fracture and failure processes in general). There is complex and highly nonlinear interaction between faults in the crust, making prediction yet more difficult. In short, there is no...
The two earthquakes differ primarily in the dip direction of the faults and the depth of faulting. The 1971 north-northeast trend of left-lateral faulting (Chatsworth trend) was not activated in 1994. 展开 关键词: Experimental/ earthquakes faulting seismology tectonics/ United States USA seismicity...

Recent damaging earthquakes in California, including the 1971 San Fernando, 1983 Coalinga, 1987 Whittier Narrows and 1994 Northridge events, have drawn attention to thrust faults as both potentially hazardous seismic sources and as a mec... C Walls,T Rockwell,K Mueller,... - 《Nature》 被引量...
Earthquake mechanism analysis of cross-faults system of Zhangjiakou-bohai fault belt in North China North China is one of the earthquake-prone areas and Zhangjiakou-bohai belt is one of the main seismic tectonic belt in North China. There are many cross-faults in the belt and strong earthquakes...

14. The data confirm the slip-rates and strain-rates averaged over 15 ± 3 ka in Fig.1, but reveal periods of rapid slip on some faults, with up to 15 m of slip in as little as 3500 years, that are contemporaneous with periods of low or no slip on neighboring faults ...
