Abstract
We have analysed the seismic source of the active fault generated Van Mw=7.1 earthquake occurred in Eastern Turkey the 23rd October 2011. To this aim the surface displacement field has been measured applying SAR Interferometry (InSAR) technique to the available dataset of coseismic COSMO-SkyMed image pairs. The seismic source model has been obtained by the use of a data inversion procedure based on the concurrent application of InSAR techniques and Neural Networks. The proposed approach elaborates the information on the coseismic deformation pattern stemming from available differential interferograms. The interferogram is the expression of the active fault at depth, thus its shape, size and its features somehow refer to the geometry and slip of the fault generating the seism. A Neural Network has been trained to recognize some fault parameters (Length, Width, Strike, Dip, Depth) from the unwrapped interferogram. The retrieval exercise consists in estimating these parameters from the coseismic interferogram exploiting Neural Networks.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
