Large seismogenic faults consist of approximately meter-thick fault cores surrounded by
hundreds-of-meters-thick damage zones. Earthquakes are generated by rupture …

Method MICHEL BOUCHON 1 Abstract — We present a review of the discrete wavenumber …

Field observations of mature crustal faults suggest that slip in individual events occurs
primarily within a thin shear zone,< 1–5 mm, within a finely granulated, ultracataclastic fault …

We employ a domain decomposition approach with Lagrange multipliers to implement fault
slip in a finite‐element code, PyLith, for use in both quasi‐static and dynamic crustal …

Among all the numerical methods in seismology, the finite-difference (FD) technique
provides the best balance of accuracy and computational efficiency. This book offers a …

We use the spectral-element method to simulate ground motion generated by two recent
and well-recorded small earthquakes in the Los Angeles basin. Simulations are performed …

We use observations of earthquake source parameters over a wide magnitude range (MW∼
0–7) to place constraints on constitutive fault weakening. The data suggest a scale …

Abstract The 4 July 2019 Mw6. 4 and subsequent 6 July 2019 Mw7. 1 Ridgecrest sequence
earthquakes (CA, USA) ruptured orthogonal fault planes in a low slip rate (1 mm/year) …

Abstract The September 2018, M_w M w 7.5 Sulawesi earthquake occurring on the Palu-
Koro strike-slip fault system was followed by an unexpected localized tsunami. We show that …

We develop a 2D slip-weakening description of a self-healing slip pulse that propagates
dynamically in a steady-state configuration. The model is used to estimate patterns of off …
