Anatomy of Strike Slip Fault Tsunami-genesis [PDF]
Tsunami generation from earthquake induced seafloor deformations has long been recognized as a major hazard to coastal areas. Strike-slip faulting has generally been believed as insufficient for triggering large tsunamis, except through the generation of submarine landslides.

Variation of b-Value of Normal, Reverse and Strike-Slip Faulting Earthquakes with Focal Depth
A crucial factor in evaluating seismic activity, seismotectonics, and seismic hazard assessment is the distribution of earthquake sizes (b-value).

TSUNAMIS FROM STRIKE-SLIP AND NORMAL EARTHQUAKES AND ITS RELATION WITH THE PRODUCT OF DOMINANT PERIOD AND DURATION OF MORE THAN 50 SECONDS OF EARTHQUAKE P-WAVE [PDF]
It is widely known that earthquakes with strike-slip or normal-faulting crustal displacements have generated destructive tsunamis around the world. Many researchers have proposed that the main cause of such events was due to factors not associated with ...

Equal spacing of strike-slip faults [PDF]
Summary Strike-slip fault systems on continents frequently occur in groups of several roughly equally-spaced faults. In this article these systems are simulated by a model. A physical mechanism is then presented, which appears to explain the phenomena shown by the model both qualitatively and to a certain extent quantitatively.

Three-dimensional approach to understanding the relationship between the Plio–Quaternary stress field and tectonic inversion in the Triassic Cuyo Basin, Argentina [PDF]
The Cacheuta sub-basin of the Triassic Cuyo Basin is an example of rift basin inversion contemporaneous to the advance of the Andean thrust front, during the Plio–Quaternary. This basin is one of the most important sedimentary basins in
