Location of largest earthquake slip and fast rupture controlled by along-strike change in fault structural maturity due to fault growth [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2016 Earthquake slip distributions are asymmetric along strike, but the reasons for the asymmetry are unknown. We address this question by establishing empirical relations between earthquake slip profiles and fault properties.

Equal spacing of strike-slip faults [PDF]
International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1976 Summary Strike-slip fault systems on continents frequently occur in groups of several roughly equally-spaced faults. In this article these systems are simulated by a model. A physical mechanism is then presented, which appears to explain the phenomena shown by the model both qualitatively and to a certain extent quantitatively.

Superficial simplicity of the 2010 El Mayor–Cucapah earthquake of Baja California in Mexico [PDF]
, 2010 The geometry of faults is usually thought to be more complicated at the surface than at depth and to control the initiation, propagation and arrest of seismic ruptures.

The Fault Effects on the Oil Migration in the Ultra-Deep Fuman Oilfield of the Tarim Basin, NW China
Energies, 2022 A giant, ultra-deep (>7000 m) strike-slip fault-related oilfield has been found in the central depression of the Tarim Basin. However, little research has addressed this discovery to understand the fault effects on the oil migration, which constrains the
