Scientific paper

The model adopted in this paper assumes that a medium is permeated with a continuum field of defects and that a flow of defects describes an advanced state of deformation leading to fracturing.
The obtained system of equations describes a field of internal stresses and a relative flow velocity of cracks. The form of equations shows that before an earthquake a field of internal stresses reaches its maximum and that this moment corresponds to a specific silent gap expressed by the disappearance of the relative velocity field of cracks. Later on there starts a rebound process with an opposite sense of relative velocities, with decrease of defect density (joining of cracks) and with a main process of earthquake release.
