Coseismic Stress Change and Viscoelastic Relaxation after the 2008 Great Sichuan Earthquake
Long-term stress accumulation influenced by coseismic stress changes and postseismic viscoelastic relaxation is considered critical to triggering giant earthquakes. Nevertheless, how the stress increase is interrupted by aftershocks and how it influences the megaseismic cycle remain enigmatic. In th...
