Abstract
In this paper, we firstly use finite element method (FEM) with Burgers model to simulate the postseismic viscoelastic relaxation taking 1960 Chile earthquake as an example. The postseismic deformation modeled with Burgers model includes co-seismic deformation, transient postseismic deformation and long-term postseismic deformation. So if we apply Burgers model to calculate postseismic deformation of 1960 Chile earthquake, there is no discrepancy phenomenon due to different durations of postseismic deformations that happens in Maxwell model.
