Iterative method and

The ‘control’ means a constraint imposed on the moment of each subevent. Instead of the automatically requested value Mo (sub i),only Mo/4 is adopted.
Vr = 3.28 km/s(instead of 3 km/s)
Unilateral propagation(from the left)
Vr = 3.68 km/s(instead of 3 km/s)
Unilateral propagation(from the right)
Vr = 5.68 and 5.26 km/s (instead of 3 km/s),
and a FALSE asperity in the middle
Bilateral propagation(from the center)
Partial results
The two methods give similar results, with similar problems.
The three scenarios behave in a different way (bilateral is the most problematic).

How does it work ?
(A deeper insight into
the ‘correlation plots’).
ISOLA successively removes subevents following
the x-t ‘correlation’(max corr = likely slip x,t)
and so on ...

For simplicity, for c2, we often use term ‘correlation’.

To understand the slip inversion we have to simulate the correlation plots, to reveal their dependence on :
• Slip distribution
• Station distribution
We assume that the correlation analysis works like a (multiple-signal) detector, similar to kinematic location. Once a signal is detected in a waveform, all equivalent x-t points
providing the same arrival are mapped.
Trade-off between source position and time
Station Y
True position of a point asperity Xa
Trial position of a point asperity X
Tr (Xa) + T(Xa,Y) = const = Tr (X) + T(X,Y)
Knowing the asperity position and time, Xa and Tr(Xa), we can calculate all equivalent positions X and times Tr (X) characterized by
the same arrival time (=const): a hyperbola. For a station along the source line, the Tr = Tr(X) degenerates to a straight line.

Seismograms contain 2 x 5 signals from the sources constituting the two asperities.
Matching complex seismograms with a single point source signals from the nodes of x-t grid (correlation analysis) we identify all possible

Simulation explains the correlation plots.
This is what we expected (assuming that the correlation analysis works as a detector).

Partial results
The correlation diagrams can be explained in terms of (multiple-source) location. It validates the assumption that correlation analysis works like a signal detector.
‘Strips’ and ‘bright spots’ in the correlation plots are due to relative shifts between multiple sources, as seen by
stations (directivity).
Correlation plot is nothing but a mapping of the shifted signals back to fault. The map (after some deciphering)
can be translated into the slip history.
Now we know (for a given slip history) how the
stations contribute to the correlation plot.

Compared to the simple forward model, we face complexities:e.g. ZAK second strip is weaker and non-uniform.
Effect of distance from the station(fitting well weaker arrival
decreases the overall varred).
Effect of focal mechanism(foc mech is well fitted only at correct x ).

Partial resultsWe understood problems of the synthetic slip inversion: correct position and time of asperities can be only found when detecting
x-t regions crossed by strips from all stations. However, false bright spots are created by directive strips also in places not
crossed by other station strips.
The problem is most severe in case of several asperities, and mainly for the bilateral ruptures.
Surprisingly, although the explanation came from analysis of ISOLA method, it holds for the iterative method, too; the two
methods are more similar than expected.
Partial results - continuedDirective/antidirective stations are not just along the fault, but in a relatively wide angle (plus minus 30 deg) with respect to fault.
The mentioned problematic effects of directive/antidirective stations do not imply that these should be excluded from
inversion. Just the opposite is true ! They play a key role, but …
We believe that most problems of slip inversion is not in ‘poor station coverage’. Note, for example, that two stations at an
angle with respect to fault strike plus/minus are equivalent. Sometimes, perhaps, less stations would do a better job
(we mean good stations ).
Part 3 - outlookHow to avoid false asperities ?
A) Always perform detection analysis (find the correlation strips) from each station separately,
and guess if they might possibly create
false bright spots.
B) False intersections can be reduced in ISOLA by starting iterative deconvolution with a finite
source, well describing a true asperity.
In fact, the primitive ‘free’ ISOLA was an extreme case of such a method. The ‘controlled’ ISOLA
was worse:
In fact, the primitive ‘free’ ISOLA was an extreme case of such a method. The ‘controlled’ ISOLA
was worse:
And this is the best: the ‘controlled’ ISOLAwhose subevent 1 is a finite right-hand asperity:
Any implication for Andravida ?
A) We inspected contributions of all stations, found a very clear directivity,
but did not see any obvious false asperity.

ConclusionsIn fact, we make location of (multiple) sources, on a given line, using waveforms,
i.e. without any phase picking. It is possible thanks to the fact that correlation analysis works as a signal detector. It is based on fitting complex waveform with a single pulse (s*G) from the node of x-t grid. This principle is implicitly common to both methods.
Since misfit function is a sum of L2 norms of individual stations, we get the same correlation plot from all stations processed simultaneously, or each station separately.
Separate analysis of individual stations is recommended. Due to directivity, each
station has different shifts between source signals (a high ‘signal density’ for directive stations). The signal density is mapped from the data space to the model space, where it produces the strips.
Intersections of the strips (mainly narrow/dense and broad/coarse for directive and
antidirective stations, resp.) are the correlation bright spots. Some of them are false. These have to be avoided prior interpreting bright spots in terms of slip.
Artifacts of slip inversion can be partially avoided when first removing the finite-
source effect of one important (true) asperity from the data.
Thank you for your attention.
Sorry if we confused you.Last month this exciting
(but a bit tricky) topic confused us 10 times every day …
