In contrast to the study of Bouchon and Vallée, in which the rupture propagation along the main fault could exceed the local shear-wave speed, perhaps reach the P-wave speed on a certain section of fault, our results show that, under a slip-weakening assumption combined with a frictional undershoot (partial stress drop model), average rupture speed should be equal to or less than the Rayleigh wave speed with a high seismic radiation efficiency, which is consistent with the result derived by waveform inversion and the result estimated from source stress field. Associated with the surface rupture mechanism, such as partial stress drop (frictional undershoot) associated with the apparent stress, an alternative rupture mechanism based on the slip-weakening model has also been discussed.展开更多

The two problems influence data quality of the empirical mode decomposition seriously. The cubic spline fitting has been analysed, and the causes of producing the overshoot and undershoot phenomenon and the end swing phenomenon have been pointed out in this paper. Two new methods of cubic spline fitting and sine spline fitting and the new technique of handling the end points of the original data curve can completely re- move the overshoot and undershoot phenomenon and the end swing phenomenon on the condition of unchanging original data, and have the advantages of the continuous fitting functions and its continuous one order derivative, the simple and convenient calculations, the small calculation amount and the easy work on it.展开更多
