Location of largest earthquake slip and fast rupture controlled by along‐strike change in fault structural maturity due to fault growth

C Perrin, I Manighetti, JP Ampuero… - Journal of …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library

Segmentation and growth of an obliquely reactivated normal fault

M Giba, JJ Walsh, A Nicol - Journal of Structural Geology, 2012 - Elsevier
Detailed kinematic analysis of a large (1800 m maximum displacement) reactivated normal
fault in the Taranaki Basin, New Zealand, has been conducted using high quality 3D seismic …

Fault trace corrugation and segmentation as a measure of fault structural maturity

I Manighetti, A Mercier… - Geophysical Research …, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
As faults grow over time and become more “mature,” some of their geometrical and
mechanical properties evolve, and these changes modify earthquake behavior. It is thus of …
