Source Mechanisms of Earthquakes

2014
This book presents an innovative new approach to studying source mechanisms of earthquakes, combining theory and observation in a unified methodology, with a key focus on the mechanics governing fault failures. It explains source mechanisms by building from fundamental concepts such as the equations of elasticity theory to more advanced problems ...

On Quantification of the Earthquake Source

Seismological Research Letters, 2001
The opinion article by Jones (Seism. Res. Lett. 71 , 395-396, 2000) and follow-up communications in Seismological Research Letters ( 71 , 670-672, 2000) discuss pros and cons of seismic moment vs. magnitude as scaling sizes for the earthquake source and possible related units.

An empirical study of earthquake source spectra for California earthquakes

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 1997
AbstractWe generalize source, path, and site effects for California earthquakes as functions of magnitude and distance, based on regression analysis of 1000 Fourier acceleration spectra from 43 California earthquakes in the moment magnitude range from 4.4 to 7.4, recorded at rupture distances from 1 to 200 km.

Source Mechanism of Earthquakes

1991
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the source mechanism of earthquakes that constitutes one of the most important subjects of seismology and has itself evolved into a large field in which numerous contributions have been made. The first mechanical model of the source of earthquakes is due to H. F.

The Nature of the Earthquake Source

1981
The dynamics of crack formation, extension, and suturing is reviewed. Finite strength of materials regulates the rate of extension of cracks and allows for termination of the extension of cracks. Strength of materials is described mathematically by singular cohesive forces.
