abstract = {Problem statement: Seismotectonic zoning has always been used to get access to intracontinental seismic deformation whereas zoning is not enough reliable in regard with small-scale studies. Approach: This research presents a theoretical model on the basis of plate tectonic theory to introduce a new approach to conduct zoning in terms of seismic deformation. Results: The result of this research not only has reliability but also is applicable to variety of research scales. Conclusion: The numerical techniques were used in the proposed model. Thus, this novelty model contains remarkable innovations: (1) Objectivity, accuracy and therefore reliability of zoning have been increased. (2) Numerical explanation of seismic deformation has been presented.},
