According to regional tectonic features of the middle section of the Xiaojiang fault and its adjacent area,the study region was partitioned into two zones with the Xiaojiang fault as the boundary,e. g. zone A and zone B (including the Xiaojiang fault). In order to research the faults stress in detail,the Xiaojiang fault zone was picked out for independent analysis. The study region was also partitioned into 1°× 1° cells with a 0. 5° step. The stress fields of zone A,B and the fault zone were inverted with the FMSI method (Gephart,1990). The results show that first, the faults are mainly of strike-slip in the middle section and its adjacent area,amounting to 81. 28%,69. 23% and 72. 97% in the A,B and fault zones,respectively. Secondly,the stress inversion also indicates that the directions of maximum principal stress σ1 in the A, B,and fault zones are approximately NNW,NWW and NWW,the stress action is mainly horizontal,and strike-slip faulting is dominant in the study area. On the other hand,the direction of the principal stress field in the central Yunnan block changed from NNW to NWW,however,in the region between the Yuanmou and Pudu River faults,the azimuth of the main compressive stress shows that the north-south slip is obvious. While the direction of the main compressive stress of the Xiaojiang fault zone is nearly NW; in the east of the Xiaojiang fault,the direction of principal compressive stress is NW to NNW in the eastern Yunnan block.展开更多

In this paper,we use the waveform data recorded by mobile seismic stations( KAC) which were set up in the source area after the Yingjiang MS5. 6earthquake on May 24,2014 to study the shear-wave splitting characteristics of Yingjiang M_S6.1 earthquake sequence with the SAM method. The result shows that predominant polarization of fast shear-waves before the M_S6.1 earthquake is consistent with the direction of regional principal compressive stress,and predominant polarization of fast shear-waves before the M_S6.1 earthquake show better consistency and smaller dispersion compared to after the M_S6.1 earthquake,and there may be a deflection for the fast shearwaves predominant polarization between the M_S6.1 earthquake sequence and foreshock sequence. We found that the time-delays generally exhibited a lower level before the M_S6.1earthquake and a relatively higher value after the M_S6.1 earthquake.展开更多
