Simulation study of earthquakes based on Spring-Block model

(Nonlinear Series)


Min Huang, Qiujian Ye

The spring-block model of earthquake is an important model to study earthquakes, and can generate highly precise statistical characteristic parameters. In this paper, we make 1D and 2D simulation study by using numerical simulation methods. We focus on the analysis of magnitude distribution of the earthquake, and its dependence on the parameter r and a.
