Distribution of Earthquakes on a Branching Fault System Using Integer Programming and Greedy‐Sequential Methods

Abstract A new global optimization method is used to determine the distribution of earthquakes on a complex, connected fault system. The method, integer programming, has been advanced in the field of operations research but has not been widely applied to geophysical problems until recently. In this...
