Earth and Space Science, 2021 We use UAVSAR interferograms to characterize fault slip, triggered by the Mw 7.2 El Mayor‐Cucapah earthquake on the 1 San Andreas Fault in the Coachella Valley providing comprehensive maps of short‐term geodetic surface deformation that complement in ...

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The eastern Sichuan Basin has undergone multiple stages of tectonic evolution and shows complex structural characteristics. It is found that there are a series of NW-SE base-trending strike-slip faults in this area besides NE-SW strike-blocking ...

On the evolution of elastic properties during laboratory stick-slip experiments spanning the transition from slow slip to dynamic rupture [PDF]
, 2016 The physical mechanisms governing slow earthquakes remain unknown, as does the relationship between slow and regular earthquakes. To investigate the mechanism(s) of slow earthquakes and related quasi-dynamic modes of fault slip we performed laboratory ...

Fault valving and pore pressure evolution in simulations of earthquake sequences and aseismic slip [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 Fault-zone fluids control effective normal stress and fault strength. While most earthquake models assume a fixed pore fluid pressure distribution, geologists have documented fault valving behavior, that is, cyclic changes in pressure and unsteady fluid ...

The slow slip of viscous faults [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2018 AbstractWe examine a simple mechanism for the spatiotemporal evolution of transient, slow slip. We consider the problem of slip on a fault that lies within an elastic continuum and whose strength is proportional to sliding rate. This rate dependence may correspond to a viscously deforming shear zone or the linearization of a nonlinear, rate‐dependent ...

Heterogeneous Slip Distribution Self-Similarity on a Fault Surface
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2016 The earthquake slip distribution self-similarity is investigated in this study. We complied finite fault slip models for earthquakes in the Taiwan orogenic belt and global earthquakes to determine the slip distribution self-similarity.

Communications Earth & Environment, 2023 Nearby faults interact through stress changes induced by fault slip and viscoelastic flow. The process is, however, often elusive and can be geometry-dependent and time-variant.

GPS source solution of the 2004 Parkfield earthquake [PDF]
, 2014 We compute a series of finite-source parameter inversions of the fault rupture of the 2004 Parkfield earthquake based on 1 Hz GPS records only. We confirm that some of the co-seismic slip at shallow depth (

Detection of repeating earthquakes and their application in characterizing slow fault slip
Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2019 Repeating earthquakes (repeaters) that rupture the same fault area (patch) are interpreted to be caused by repeated accumulation and release of stress on the seismic patch in a creeping area.

Experimental investigation on fluid-induced slip behavior of fault filled with fault gouge
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical EngineeringFault zones are usually filled with fault gouge and accompanied by fault water. The coupled effect of fault gouge and water significantly impacts the slip behavior of the fault, which may weaken the fault structure and further induce rupture propagation ...
