Introduction Seismic sources Earthquake Explosion Slip on a plane Pressure pulse on a sphere

Start with Newton Add ‘constitutive equation’ to relate stress to strain to displacement Seismic wave equation

Can decompose to P and S wave solutions of the form Wave equation can be solved by plane- wave Seismic wave equation

The wave equation is solved on a computer by using a discrete representation of the differential equation Finite differences

Seismic moment tensors M represents all possible force couple components due to a seismic source in a cartesian coordinate system Necessary to have two force couples (double couple, DC), so that angular momentum is conserved in the source sphere, which leads to M ij = M ji and the moment tensor is symmetric

Seismic moment tensors Double-couple (DC) y z x Compensated linear vector dipole (CLVD) Isotropic y z x y z x Model Source M Couples Focal Ring Fault Explosion Strike-slip Mechanism

Moment tensor inversion in matrix form d = Gm m = vector of 6 independent moment tensor elements m = (G T G) -1 G T d
