Abstract
⺠We model inter- and coseismic deformation associated to the Wenchuan earthquake. ⺠The inverted optimum model fits the observed data very well. ⺠High elastic strain energy rate is found in and around the Longmen Shan. ⺠Modeled coseismic normal and shear stress on the surface of the fault changes. ⺠These stress changes on the surface of the fault promote the Wenchuan earthquake.
