The displacement field due to a shear dislocation can be given by the displacement field due to a distribution of equivalent double couples that are placed in a medium without any dislocation.

Since static deformations decay rapidly with distance from the source, ground deformations are usually near the fault a point-source approximation is never valid finite fault numerically discretized distribution of double couples.
