Method for estimating the stress field from seismic moment tensor data based on the flow rule in plasticity theory
Abstract The stress field is a key factor controlling earthquake occurrence and crustal evolution. In this study, we propose an approach for determining the stress field in a region using seismic moment tensors, based on the classical equation in plasticity theory. Seismic activity is a phenomenon t...
