Simulation of surface displacement and strain field of the 2011 Japan Mw9.0 earthquake

Simulation of surface displacement and strain field of the 2011 Japan Mw9.0 earthquake

Based on dislocation theory of Okada, we adopted a finite-element fault model inverted by Gavin Hayes from seismic data for the 2011 Japan Mw9.0 earthquake, and obtained the corresponding surface displacement and strain fields. The calculated displacement field is consistent with the observed GPS re...
