Slip- and velocity-dependent friction measurements on Tohoku, Japan Trench samples
, 2020 We investigate the role of slow and transient slip as an initial condition on earthquake-hosting faults in laboratory friction experiments, using the natural fault material retrieved from the Tohoku décollement that likely hosts both fast and slow slip ...

, 2022 Cataclasites are a characteristic rock type found in drill cores from active faults as well as in exposed fossil subduction faults. Here, cataclasites are commonly associated with evidence for pervasive pressure solution and abundant hydrofracturing ...

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2023 The tidal triggering of earthquakes has been studied for many years. The discovery of slow earthquakes in the early 2000s, including slow slip, has urged scientists to investigate the tidal responses of these earthquakes due to their sensitivity to weak ...

Transient Slow Slip Characteristics of Frictional‐Viscous Subduction Megathrust Shear Zones
AGU Advances, 2021 The deep roots of subduction megathrusts exhibit aseismic slow slip events, commonly accompanied by tectonic tremor. Observations from exhumed rocks suggest this region of the subduction interface is a shear zone with frictional lenses embedded in a ...

The effect of slip length on vortex rebound from a rigid boundary [PDF]
, 2013 The problem of a dipole incident normally on a rigid boundary, for moderate to large Reynolds numbers, has recently been treated numerically using a volume penalisation method by Nguyen van yen, Farge, and Schneider [Phys. Rev.

Laboratory observations of slow earthquakes and the spectrum of tectonic fault slip modes
Nature Communications, 2016 Slow earthquakes, where fault slip is slow, can be large and may help trigger regular earthquakes, but the mechanics of slow slip are not fully understood.

Reconsidering earthquake scaling
Geophysical Research Letters, 2016 The relationship (scaling) between scalar moment, M0, and duration, T, potentially provides key constraints on the physics governing fault slip. The prevailing interpretation of M0‐T observations proposes different scaling for fast (earthquakes) and slow

Structural control and system-level behavior of the seismic cycle at the Nankai Trough
Earth, Planets and Space, 2020 The Nankai Trough in Southwest Japan exhibits a wide spectrum of fault slip, with long-term and short-term slow-slip events, slow and fast earthquakes, all associated with different segments down the plate interface.

Computational Analysis of Wall Slip and Cavitation in Lubricated Sliding Systems [PDF]
, 2012 Lubrication is applied to systems in which parts are in relative motion to avoid direct contact between the surfaces. The behavior of the fluid-film in sliding bearings depends on the boundary conditions at the interface between the liquid and the ...
