A method of seismic zonation based on deterministic modeling of rupture plane is presented in this work. This method is … based on the modeling of finite rupture plane along identified lineaments in the region using the semi-empirical technique … deterministic modeling of the rupture is consistent with the historical seismicity map and it has been found that the epicenter of …

comparison of simulated and observed waveform has been made for various possibilities of rupture parameters in terms of root mean … square error. The final rupture model supports rupture velocity of 3.0 km/s with nucleation point supporting northward … propagating rupture that coincide with high-slip asperity defined by Sorensen et al.
