Abstract
The antiplane deformation of a two layered model consisting of a homogeneous, elastically isotropic (HEI) stratum of finite thickness lying on a HEI substratum occurring from a buried inclined strike-slip fault (ISF) situated in the stratum has been studied. The stratum is in welded contact with the substratum having different rigidity. The integral expressions for the deformation field occurring from a long strike-slip line dislocation for the antiplane strain case have been obtained using Fourier transform approach. The integrals have been solved analytically by expanding the denominator into a finite sum of exponential terms (FSET) using least square method. Further, the deformation is obtained for a long buried ISF of finite width via integrating over the width of line dislocation. The variation of the displacement has been computed graphically with respect to the epicentral distance as well as with depth.
研究了一个两层模型的反平面变形,该模型由厚度有限的均质弹性各向同性(HEI)地层和位于地层中的埋藏倾斜走向滑动断层(ISF)的 HEI 基底组成。地层与具有不同刚度的底层焊接接触。在反平面应变情况下,利用傅里叶变换方法获得了长走向滑动线位错产生的变形场的积分表达式。利用最小平方法将分母展开为指数项的有限和(FSET),从而对积分进行分析求解。此外,对于有限宽度的长埋 ISF,通过对线位错宽度进行积分,可获得其变形量。位移随震中距和深度的变化以图形方式计算。
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Earth System Science, an International Journal, was earlier a part of the Proceedings of the Indian Academy of Sciences – Section A begun in 1934, and later split in 1978 into theme journals. This journal was published as Proceedings – Earth and Planetary Sciences since 1978, and in 2005 was renamed ‘Journal of Earth System Science’.
The journal is highly inter-disciplinary and publishes scholarly research – new data, ideas, and conceptual advances – in Earth System Science. The focus is on the evolution of the Earth as a system: manuscripts describing changes of anthropogenic origin in a limited region are not considered unless they go beyond describing the changes to include an analysis of earth-system processes. The journal''s scope includes the solid earth (geosphere), the atmosphere, the hydrosphere (including cryosphere), and the biosphere; it also addresses related aspects of planetary and space sciences. Contributions pertaining to the Indian sub- continent and the surrounding Indian-Ocean region are particularly welcome. Given that a large number of manuscripts report either observations or model results for a limited domain, manuscripts intended for publication in JESS are expected to fulfill at least one of the following three criteria.
The data should be of relevance and should be of statistically significant size and from a region from where such data are sparse. If the data are from a well-sampled region, the data size should be considerable and advance our knowledge of the region.
A model study is carried out to explain observations reported either in the same manuscript or in the literature.
The analysis, whether of data or with models, is novel and the inferences advance the current knowledge.
