摘要:The studies related to the deformation of a uniform half-space caused by various faults placed at originand at depth d has been done earlier. The purpose of the present paper is to study such deformation due to a buriedtensile fault when the upper edge of the fault is placed at depths (d, d) in horizontal and vertical directionsrespectively. Closed-form analytical expressions for the stresses and displacements are obtained using the Airy stressfunction approach. Then the variation of surface displacement fields i.e. horizontal displacement and uplift with thehorizontal distance from the fault is studied numerically for the different values of dip angle δ, and depths d and d.The parameters d and d occur explicitly in the final expressions of displacements.
