If the relative movement of hanging wall and footwall is parallel to the strike of faultplane it is a strike slip fault.
如果断层上盘和下盘的岩石相对位移运动是平行断层面走向的,这种断层称为走滑断层。

If a fault has a vertical faultplane. How do we determine its hanging wall and footwall?
若一断层的断层面是直立的,我们怎么去确定它的上盘和下盘呢?

The aftershocks were distributed on (or near) the faultplane and were triggered by the stress redistribution in the medium in the nearby region of the faultplane.
