The complex faulting process of earthquakes / by Junji Koyama.

Show other versions (1)

This book extends our understanding of the faulting process of natural earthquakes as a complex system. The complex faulting process is generally described by considering a deterministic source (coherent rupture) and a stochastic source (incoherent ruptures). Long-period and short-period approximati...
