Fig. 1From: Eigenvector of gravity gradient tensor for estimating fault dips considering fault typeSchematic illustration of the maximum eigenvectors for two-dimensional (2D) structures such as dykes and faults. a Basic model. In this figure, v 1 is the maximum eigenvector of the gravity gradient tensor and points to the causative body. The angle α between the surface and the maximum eigenvector is the dip of the causative body. b Fault model. A basement consists of an aggregate of high-density prisms, and the angle, α, indicates the fault dipBack to article page
