Stress drops for foreshocks and aftershocks of the 1979 Petatlán, Mexico, earthquake

Stress drops for foreshocks and aftershocks (3.5 ~ ML ~ 4.0) of the 1979 Petatlan, Mexico, earthquake (Ms = 7.6) were examined with the purpose of understanding the mechanical properties of rock and the failure process of a very Young subduction zone. The static stress drop was calculated by estimat...

Los esfuerzos fueron calculados estimándose la dimensión de la fuente a partir de la anchura del medio ciclo de la onda P y del momento sísmico obtenido a partir de una formula empírica apropiada para la región. Los resultados indican una distribución irregular de esfuerzos en toda el área de replicas y proporcionan evidencias que apoyan un modelo de dos asperidades en la fuente.Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México.
