Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Based on fractional calculus, we considered the fault zone as a typical example of the deformed medium including internal structures characterized by the fractional dimension. The fractional notation of the Green’s function for the generalized Laplace field gives a relationship between the fractional dimension and the fractional order of the equation. We applied the relationship to the displacement field around the strike-slip fault characterized by the generalized Laplace equation. From the observed data for the strike-slip fault, we calculated the fractional dimension of the fractional deformation field. This result implies that the non-locality of the deformation field increases toward the fault. Moreover, we suggest the heuristic method of deriving the displacement field of the fractional Navier equation in the semi-fractional case.
