Research Abstract |
To reflect information about stress state around active faults in fault-rupture risk assessment, we estimated slip tendencies of active faults on the basis of present-day tectonic stress field. We found that that most of the active faults have high slip tendency values for the tectonic stress field. Since a weak correlation between slip tendency and earthquake risk on active faults were observed by comparing slip tendency with quantifiable properties of active faults, such as elapsed time since the most recent event, slip tendency analysis may not be useful for evaluating earthquake risk on active faults. On the other hand, slip tendency may be a better means of evaluating fault activity or be useful for evaluating potential of large earthquake by combining with other information, such as geological data and detailed crustal structure.
