| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The outcomes of this research are summarized as follows: (1) A basic processing system was established to effectively observe crustal movements in the Tohoku district using GPS data such as F3 and RINEX types of GEONET. (2) Numerical simulations for the pre-slip phenomena during a few days prior to great inter-plate earthquakes were made to some tectonic plate models by using 2-dimensional FEM. The numerical simulations showed that further studies based on more sophisticated temporal-spatial-dependent model for the friction law peculiar to plate interaction are required to obtain final conclusion regarding the pre-slip phenomena. (3) Some precursory behaviors of the crust preceding 8 damage earthquakes occurred in the past 10 years in the Tohoku district including the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake were studied focusing on their time variations of the displacement azimuth. The results made it clear that some unusual temporal variations in azimuth appeared a few days prior to the main events.
