# BforStrain
22
These codes compute strain rates on a trianglular 2D mesh using a geodetic velocity field. The method is based on the paper by K. Johnson (2024) available at https://doi.org/10.1029/2023JB027472 . Body-forces in a thin elastic plate are used to compute a velocity and strain rate field computed at the centroids of the triangles in the mesh. The inversion solves for the distribution of body forces (at the triangle nodes) that best-fits the geodetic velocity field. You can specify a range of smoothing values (called beta) that minimize the magnitude of the body forces. There is also an optional second step that further minimizes strain rates below a specified threshold.

Paramters can be specified in params.py. The data used in Johnson (2024) from Zeng (2022) https://doi.org/10.1785/0220220180 is currently loaded, along with creeping fault traces from the 2023 US National Seismic Hazard Model.
