Abstract
In this research the Coulomb stress changes due to earthquake sequence that began in the 1936 to
1997 earthquakes in Eastern Iran and their triggering effect on the rupturing of adjacent faults were investigated.
Obtained results revealed a well triggering relation between main shocks and later events on the Dashte-
Bayaz and Abiz faults, respectively. The calculated stress maps indicate that positive and negative zones of
Coulomb stress changes with increasing lobes of 0.1‒1 bar are found in the off-faults tips, located at rupture
terminates while the decreasing Coulomb stress lobes lie in the high angle relative to the rupture plane or
relieve stress along the ruptures.
