Abstract
Closed analytical expressions for the displacement fields of inclined, finite strike-slip and dip-slip faults are given. They may be readily used in the numerical computation of displacements, and, by differentiation, strain and stress fields may be derived. The expressions are valid both at the surface and at depth.Keywords
