Seismogenic model of earthquakes in groups in tectonic block and analysis for some features of earthquake precursory field

  • Published:
Acta Seismologica Sinica

Abstract

Based on the research of computer model on unified seismogenic process of grouped earthquakes in tectonic block under tectonodynamic force, some characteristics of seismic activity and some features of earthquake precursory field have been studied, including activity of grouped earthquakes, the relationship between earthquake activity and earthquake precursors, the cause of earthquake precursors and so on. By comparing research between the results of theoretical model and practical earthquake cases, some physical explanation for seismogenic process, some characteristics of earthquake activity, and the features of earthquake precursory field have been given.
