Some theoretical implications of strike-slip faulting

Petrak, John A. January 1965 (has links)
When a fault occurs in the earth's crust, the ground in its vicinity becomes deformed. This thesis uses the theory of dislocations, as developed by J. A. Steketee, to examine the nature of this deformation for a variety of strike-slip fault models. The theory is developed for calculating the displacement field and stress changes expected at any point around a vertical transcurrent dislocation surface whose net displacement is constant in the horizontal direction, and varies with depth. The results obtained are compared graphically with geodetic data, and those discrepancies that arise between theory and observation are attributed to the limiting assumptions of the model. The principal conclusion of this work is that the variable-slip fault model provides a significant improvement over previous fault models which assumed a constant displacement. / Science, Faculty of / Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences, Department of / Graduate

Investigation of twelve earthquakes off the Oregon and northern California coasts

Rinehart, Verill Joanne 14 May 1964 (has links)
Twelve earthquakes off the Oregon and Northern California coasts were used in this research to study whether faulting associated with these quakes was of the San Andreas type as observed in California. The first motions of the incident P and S waves recorded at various seismic stations in the Pacific Northwest were used to obtain a fault plane solution for these earthquakes. Nine earthquakes exhibited faulting which could be consistent with San Andreas type of motion, where one of these motions was based on first P and S data, six others were consistent with either northwesterly right-lateral or northeasterly left-lateral motions, and two were recorded at so few stations that faulting could not be defined through a fault plane solution. One earthquake was located in the region of the Gorda Escarpment west of Cape Mendocino, California, and displacements appear to be associated with that zone, one earthquake had Garlock-type displacements as defined through P and S motions, and one earthquake was not associated with any of the above types of faults. / Graduation date: 1964
