Applications of Moment Tensor Solutions to the Assessment of Earthquake Hazard in Canada
2018
Centroid Moment Tensor solutions (CMT’s) provide valuable information on the physics of an earthquake source, focal depth, and seismic moment. The earthquake rupture is described in terms of nine generalised force couples (a 3 × 3 matrix) that represent shear dislocation and volume change (see Jost and Herrmann 1989).
