Mechanics of Earthquakes [PDF]
Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 1994 An earthquake is a sudden rupture process in the Earth’s crust or mantle caused by tectonic stress. To understand the physics of earthquakes it is important to determine the state of stress before, during, and after an earthquake. There have been significant advances in seismology during the past few decades, and some details on the state of stress ...
