摘要
The focal mechanism of Wuding earthquake with magnitude M =6.5 on October 24, 1995 is estimated by the method of inversion of seismic tensor in this paper. The two principal axes are nearly horizontal, the principal compressive axis is about N30°E, the nodal plane which strikes about N105°E (N75°W) is probably consistent with the actual rupture plane.
