Summary An analytic approximation to the Green's function for the displacements due to a strike slip point source in an elastic layer over a visco-elastic half-space is developed. This approximate Green's function is useful because it can be analytically integrated over the fault surface. Comparison with a numerical integration of the exact solution integral indicates that the approximation is quite good. The approximate Green's function is integrated analytically to obtain the displacements due to a finite rectangular strike slip fault in an elastic layer over a viscoelastic half-space. Ground displacements and angle changes from a model survey net are computed to illustrate the viscoelastic relaxation which follows a fracture in the elastic region.
