Abstract
Closed-form analytical expressions for the displacement and stresses at an arbitrary point caused by strike-slip line source buried in a homogeneous, isotropic, perfectly elastic half-space with rigid boundary are obtained. These expressions are used, further, to find the expressions for the displacement and stresses caused by vertical as well as horizontal strike-slip line source. The variation of the displacement and stress fields due to vertical strike-slip line source and horizontal strike-slip line source with distance from the fault and depth from the fault is studied numerically. Keywords - Half-space, rigid boundary, static deformation, strike-slip faulting
