Characteristics of the Co-Seismic Displacement of Seismic Faults in Ms 8.0 Wenchuan Earthquake: Implications for Fault Structural Analysis
This paper analyzes the characteristics of the co-seismic displacement ways, size and spatial variations of earthquake faults in Ms8. 0 Wenchuan earthquake. The paper proposed that the characteristics of the co-seismic displacement ways, size and spatial variations of earthquake faults in Ms8. 0 Wenchuan earthquake could be interpreted as the result of the integrated action of the regional tectonic stress and earthquake dynamics stress. The characteristics of fault co-seismic displacement and its spatial variation, and different direction scratch slickensides occurred on the same fault friction mirror make us confused up how to employ the traditional theories and methods of fault analysis. It is really further investigated for the fault kinemetic historical analysis methods.
