Statistical analysis of stress drops in Mexico with an application to accelerations of the ground

Contenido principal del artículo

M. Caputo

Resumen

El análisis estadístico de caídas de esfuerzo, p, de 5 grupos de temblores en California y México confirma que la distribución de densidad de p es proporcional a p-l+α(α <0). El resultado había sido predicho por Caputo (1976). La distribución de densidad de p nos permite computar el período de retorno de aceleraciones del suelo (Caputo, 193la) y encontrar signos precursores de temblores (Caputo, 1981 b).
