Earthquakes occur mainly on active faults. Fault slip is closely related to seismicity and is
thus widely discussed in Geosciences, Seismology, and Engineering. Slip experiment is a …

The recognition of a previously unknown spectrum of slow earthquake phenomena has
ignited one of the most dynamic fields in modern seismology and fault mechanics. These …

Modern geodetic and seismologic observations describe the behavior of fault slip over a
vast range of spatial and temporal scales. Slip at sub-seismogenic speeds is evident from …

Slow earthquakes represent an important conundrum in earthquake physics. While regular
earthquakes are catastrophic events with rupture velocities governed by elastic wave speed …

This essential reference for graduate students and researchers provides a unified treatment
of earthquakes and faulting as two aspects of brittle tectonics at different timescales. The …

A growing body of observations worldwide has documented fault slip transients that radiate
little or no seismic energy. The mechanisms that govern these slow slip events (SSEs) and …

Slow slip events (SSEs) accommodate a significant proportion of tectonic plate motion at
subduction zones, yet little is known about the faults that actually host them. The shallow …

Understanding the physical mechanisms governing fluid‐induced fault slip is important for
improved mitigation of seismic risks associated with large‐scale fluid injection. We …

Fluid overpressure is one of the primary mechanisms for tectonic fault slip, because fluids
lubricate the fault and fluid pressure reduces the effective normal stress that holds the fault in …

A comprehensive reservoir geomechanical analysis has been performed in the matured
giant El Morgan field, Gulf of Suez to assess the effect of hydrocarbon production on stress …
