Abstract
The empirical Green’s tensor spatial derivative (EGTD) method, proposed by Plicka and Zahradnik (1998), has the potential to deal with differences in focal mechanisms between a targeted event and other small events, and to predict the ground motion for an event with an arbitrary focal mechanism.
