Numerical modeling of tectonic stress field and fault activity in North China
On the basis of a 3-dimension visco-elastic finite element model of lithosphere in North China, we numerically simulate the recent mutative figures of tectonic stress field. Annual change characteristics of stress field are; 1) Maximum principal tensile stress is about 3–9 kPaa−1 and its azimuth lie...
