Abstract Focal-mechanism solutions of four earthquakes in the eastern Himalayas and northern Burma are determined using the first motion of compressional waves. Two possible solutions thus obtained for each event reveal steeply dipping fault with predominantly strike-slip motion.

Focal mechanism solution of the Himalayan earthquake of February 14, 1977
Tectonophysics, 1982Abstract Through a closely spaced local network of seismic stations in Himachal Pradesh, India, supplemented by worldwide P-wave first-motion data, the source mechanism of the February 14, 1977 earthquake which occurred very close to the Rawalpindi area in Pakistan has been determined.

Two focal-mechanism solutions for earthquakes from Iceland and Svalbard
Tectonophysics, 1977Abstract Strike-slip solutions have been obtained and are presented here for the focal mechanisms of one earthquake from Iceland and one from Svalbard, on 13 and 18 January 1976, respectively. A fault plane is suggested for the Iceland earthquake.

Focal mechanism solutions for Albanian earthquakes for the years 1964–1988
Tectonophysics, 1994Abstract Focal mechanism solutions for 175 Albanian earthquakes of Albania for the years 1964–1988 were obtained by using an interactive computer technique. The results obtained are elaborated upon by applying Fisherian statistical analysis to obtain parameters for the mean stress direction in five zones.

Focal mechanism solutions and its tectonic significance in the trench of the eastern South China Sea
Acta Seismologica Sinica, 2005According to the activity of earthquakes and volcanoes along the Manila trench and its adjacent region, combined with analysis of focal mechanism solutions and geophysics data, the Manila trench is still being downward subduction in the depth of 200 km.

Modern tectonic stress field in the Chinese mainland inverted from focal mechanism solutions
Acta Seismologica Sinica, 1999The inversion of modern tectonic stress field in China is made by regions on the basis of focal mechanism data in the period of 1920–1996. Results of the inversion show that the maximum principal compressive stress σ1 axis strikes nearly north-south direction in the Tibet Plateau and western China, east-west direction in North China.

AbstractIn this paper, high quality seismic data in 1964~2003 from the ISC (International Seismological Centre) catalog are used to present a relatively more complete and definite geometric structure of the intermediate seismic zone in the Pamir‐Hindu Kush region. Dip directions and the largest depth of the Hindu Kush intermediate seismic zone (H zone)
