Sentence examples for an average slip of from inspiring English sources
Both the Sanriku tsunami heights and the waveforms were reproduced by a 200-km × 50-km fault with an average slip of 8 m, with the large (20 m) slip on a 100-km × 25-km asperity.
Restricting the averaging to only regions for which the subfault moment is 20percentt of the largest subfault moment, we find an average slip of 20.9 m over 54,400 km2, with a cumulative seismic moment of 3.8 × 1022 N m.
Verhoof et al reported in 2008 a high failure rate in IPD (X-stop), with an average slip on the radiographs of 19.6%, and a high surgical re-intervention rate (seven out of the 12) [ 35].
With an average slip rate of 2 cm/year, several meters have accumulated over the past 250 years (Straub 1996; Meade et al. 2002).

The fault system is characterized by dextral motion with an average slip rate of 20 30 mm/year (e.g., McClusky et al. 2000; Le Pichon et al. 2001), and it is composed of several segments (Barka and Kadinsky-Cade 1988).
Our moment-tensor inversion and spectral analysis, based on the omega-square model, point to a localized asperity over a circular fault having a radius of 70 km with an average slip and stress drop of 50 m and 40 MPa, respectively.
We estimated the (mu_{text{d}}) values (Table 3) from the regional stress field and the seismic moment using the relation between the stress drop and the average slip of an elliptical crack by Madariaga (1977), taking into account the free surface effect.
The source model obtained from the two-step approach indicated 4.7 × 1019 Nm of the total moment release and 1.8 m average slip of the entire fault with a rupture area of 792 km2.
Geodetic inversion has been improved from being an averaged slip estimation of one or several fault planes to slip distribution estimation of multiple finite discrete fault patches, based on sufficient near-field constraints (Segall and Davis, 1997).
Table 3 Fluctuation of the parameters for the heterogeneous models Slip (m) Rupture velocity (m/s) Rake angle Model H1 (pm 0.5 D/left( {a^{k - 1} } right)) – – Model H2 (pm 400) – Model H3 (pm 45^circ) D is the average slip of the entire fault, and the constant a is set to 1.5 at scale k Fig. 4 Source time functions of the source models.
