Majority of ruptures in large continental strike‐slip earthquakes are unilateral: Permissive evidence for hybrid brittle‐to‐dynamic ruptures
Finite‐element models of neotectonics require transform faults to rupture seismically even
where preseismic shear stresses are low, presumably by dynamic‐weakening mechanisms …
