文摘关于汶川地震的破裂过程的运动学已有许多研究成果,如沈正康小组(2009)、陈运泰小组(2008)、姚振兴小组(2008)和纪晨小组(Jietal,2008)。尽管各个结果有所不同,但基本特征还是一致的。以沈正康小组最近在Nature Geosciences上的结果为例(Shenetal,2009),地震破裂断层存在两个滑动剧烈的地区:映秀、北川,滑动量近10m,在南坝也有5m的滑动量。如果进一步观察,会发现这些滑动剧烈的局部地区与断层的几何非均匀性(弯折、跨跳等)有一致的对应关系。为了从物理上理解这种对应关系,我们利用本课题组近年来发展的能够计算复杂的非平面地震断层自发破裂动力学过程的新方法(Zhang and Chen,2006;Liuand Chen,2008;Zhuetal,2009),系统研究了地震断层的几何非均匀性与等效平面地震断层的剪切破裂强度等动力学参数之间的等效性问题。在此基础上,根据汶川地震发震断层的非平面几何模型(Shenetal,2009;Xuetal,2009),我们模拟计算了该地震的自发破裂动力学过程,结果较好地解释了由震源运动学反演获得的复杂断层滑动过程的主要特征,即断层滑动复杂非均匀分布与断层的几何非均匀性(弯折、跨跳等)之间的对应关系。
