Dilatancy model and empirical formulas for an earthquake area

SummaryA physical interpretation of empirical formulas for earthquake magnitude (M) and spatial extents of land deformation and aftershock area is attempted on the basis of a dilatancy model. It is demonstrated that the precursor time interval (τ) vs.M relation approximately fits in that for the τ vs. typical length of earthquake zone provided the above formulas hold good. A diffusion process in a dilatant region seems also to account for these approximate formulas.
