A non-uniform dip slip formula to calculate the coseismic deformation: Case study of Tohoku Mw9.0 Earthquake

The distribution of slip faults along the fault plane plays a special role in the kinetic pattern of tectonic deformation. To better understand the coseismic deformation and geodynamics of the earthquake, this paper applied the pile-up theory and derived an analytical formula to describe the non-uni...
