Stress Drop Patterns

Stress Drop Patterns is a seismological construct that characterizes the spatial and temporal variations in the difference between shear stress on a fault before and after an earthquake, distinguishing itself by quantifying how stress release heterogeneity influences seismic source properties and aftershock distributions.
