A multilayer model of time dependent deformation following an earthquake on a strike-slip fault [PDF]

open access: yes
A multilayer model of the Earth to calculate finite element of time dependent deformation and stress following an earthquake on a strike slip fault is discussed. The model involves shear properties of an elastic upper lithosphere, a standard viscoelastic

Strain accumulation and surface deformation along the San Andreas, California [PDF]

open access: yes
Stressing and rupture of a locked zone adjacent to a creeping fault segment was studied with special reference to strength heterogeneity depthwise and along-strike.

Damage structures and fault evolution around strike-slip faults

open access: yes, 2000
Damage zones around strike-slip faults show a variety of fracture patterns related to stress concentration and accommodation of displacement. Damage zone structures can be classified into three main groups according to their location along a strike-slip fault - tip zone, wall zone and linking zone structures.

Dynamics of fault interaction: parallel strike-slip faults

International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1993
We use a two‐dimensional finite difference computer program to study the effect of fault steps on dynamic ruptures. Our results indicate that a strike‐slip earthquake is unlikely to jump a fault step wider than 5 km, in correlation with field observations of moderate to great‐sized earthquakes.

Fault Displacement Hazard for Strike-Slip Faults

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2011
In this paper we present a methodology, data, and regression equations for calculating the fault rupture hazard at sites near steeply dipping, strike-slip faults. We collected and digitized on-fault and off-fault displacement data for 9 global strike- slip earthquakes ranging from moment magnitude M 6.5 to M 7.6 and supplemented these with ...

Segmentation along Strike-Slip Faults Revisited

Pure and Applied Geophysics, 2009
Fault segmentation and fault steps and their evolution are relevant to the dynamics and size of earthquake ruptures, the distribution of fault damage zones and the capacity of fault seal. Furthermore, segment interactions and coalescence are the fundamental processes for fault growth.
