Fault slip envelope: a new parametric investigation tool for fault slip based on geomechanics and 3-D fault geometry [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2019 By combining a 3-D boundary element model, frictional slip theory, and fast computation method, we propose a new tool to improve fault slip analysis that allows the user to analyze a very large number of scenarios of stress and fault mechanical property ...

Major California faults are smooth across multiple scales at seismogenic depth
Seismica, 2023 Surface traces of earthquake faults are complex and segmented on multiple scales. At seismogenic depth the detailed geometry of faults and earthquake rupture is mainly constrained by earthquake locations.
