Seismological Studies for Tensile Faults
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2008 A shear slip fault, an equivalence of a double couple source, has often been assumed to be a kinematic source model in ground motion simulation. Estimation of seismic moment based on the shear slip model indicates the size of an earthquake.
