The result shows that before the M S=6.6 earthquake, value h of sequence frequency attenuation coefficient was less than 1, then value h was more than 1. Before occurrence of M S6.0 earthquakes the energy is released either in a continuously strengthened way or a sharply strengthened way, and before M S5.0 earthquakes the sequence frequency shows calm. The study on the focal mechanism solution of the strong earthquake swarm shows that the source faults are mainly in a right lateral, strike slip way and the faults have characteristics of tensor shear.展开更多

Friction, which is represented by a velocity- and state-de- pendent friction law by some researchers, controls the three parts. One of the main parameters of the law is the char- acteristic slip displacement, De. It is significant and nec- essary to evaluate the reliable value of Dc from observed and inverted seismic data. Since Dc controls the radiation efficiency, ηR = Es/（Es ＋ Eg）, the value of qR is a good constraint of estimating Dc. Integrating observed data and inverted results of source parameters from recorded seis- mograms, the values of Es and Eg of an earthquake can be measured, thus leading to the value of ηR. The constraint used to estimate the reliable value of Dc will be described in this work. An example of estimates of Dc based on the observed and inverted values of source parameters of the September 20, 1999 Ms 7.6 Chi-Chi （Ji-Ji）, Taiwan region, earthquake will be presented.展开更多

Results show that two （normalized） model parameters, i.e., A （the normalized characteristic slip distance） and β-α （the difference in two normalized parameters of friction laws）, control the solutions. From given values of △, β, and α, for the slowness laws, the solution exists and the unique non-zero fixed point is stable when △〉（β-α）, yet not when △ 〈（β-α）. For the slip law, the solution exists for large ranges of model parameters and the number and stability of the non-zero fixed points change from one case to another. Results suggest that the slip law is more appropriate for controlling earthquake dynamics than the slowness law.展开更多
