For example, large earthquake epicenters often occur near restraining bends or double bends. Furthermore, aftershocks and swarm activity can often be associated with releasing areas (areas along the strike-slip fault that are undergoing a relatively large amount of extension)....
Here we prefer the term “strike-slip motion” to “strike-slip fault” (SSF), as several of the events have their strike-slip motion on faults with dipping fault, such as the 2013, Mw7.7, Balochistan earthquake (Avouac et al., 2014, Jolivet et al., 2014). It is generally assumed ...
Six moderate-sized earthquakes that occurred close the the Kazerun Line, and within a 25 km area involved right-lateral strike-slip motion parallel to the strike of the valley. They indicate that the Kazerun Line is the surface expression of a buried strike-slip fault. Slip vectors in these...
The geometry of Turkish strike-slip faults has been reviewed and described. From this data set it appears that fault geometry (the distribution of discontinuities such as bends and stepovers along the main fault trace) plays an important role in controlling the location of large earthquake rupture...
The result also indicates that regional devastating tsunamis can be generated by an onshore strike-slip fault with localized large dip slip. Key Points Two analyses utilizing teleseismic, Synthetic Aperture Radar, and tsunami data retrieve an earthquake source model that explains the observed tsunami ...

It also holds the record for strongest "strike/slip" earthquake -- one in which the steep sides of a fault push and slip past each other, as happens along much of California's San Andreas fault, rather than one caused by the bulldozing of a thrust fault, like that which produced the ...
Earthquake nucleation withstrike slip faultwas analyzed by means of the variational boundary integral method and slip weakening friction law. 利用边界单元法和滑移弱化摩擦本构关系分析了平移断层上地震的产生。 3) strike-slip fault 平移断层 1.
This dissertation focuses on interseismic portion of the earthquake cycle to extract characteristics of fault, shear zone and rock properties. Global Positioning System (GPS) data are used to observe the pattern of deformation across two primarily strike-slip fault systems: the Carrizo Segment of the...
