Seismological fracture or breakdown energy represents energy expended in a volume
surrounding the advancing rupture front and the slipping fault surface. Estimates are …

富流体的断层泥是浅部地震断层带中的特征岩石. 一般认为, 地震过程中摩擦热会导致粒间孔隙
流体热膨胀增压, 形成同震断层弱化(热增压机制), 从而抑制摩擦熔融的发生. 然而我们研究发现 …

The mechanisms of earthquake rupture in lower continental crust, below the usual frictional‐
viscous transition, remain uncertain. In addressing this problem, the study of …

Abstract The 5.5 magnitude (Mw) earthquake in Pohang, South Korea in 2017 was one of
the largest triggered earthquakes at an enhanced geothermal system (EGS) site. Faults that …

Tectonic pseudotachylytes have provided valuable insights into the evolution of seismic
activity during crustal deformation. However, the origin and formation processes of …

While sliding at seismic slip‐rates of∼ 1 m/s, natural faults undergo an abrupt decrease of
shear stress called dynamic weakening. Asperity‐scale (<< mm) processes related to flash …

The base of the Silvretta Nappe (Austroalpine Unit, Eastern Alps) has localized extensive
deformation, including the occurrence of multiple generations of pseudotachylytes …

Although the mechanics of continental, seismogenic strike-slip faults have been primarily
studied around active faults near Earth's surface, large earthquakes on these faults …
