Locating the Focus of a Starting Earthquake ()
Abstract
This
article describes a method of locating the focus of a starting earthquake based
on the use of the elastic interaction energy. The method allows determining the
focus location and its energy class as well as evaluating the stresses caused
by it and observing its evolution.
