Fault zones and fault systems have a key role in the development of the Earth's crust. They
control the mechanics and fluid flow properties of the crust, and the architecture of …

Exhumed fault zones offer insights into deformation processes associated with earthquakes
in unparalleled spatial resolution; however it can be difficult to differentiate seismic slip from …

We considered various non‐uniformities such as branch faults, rotation of stress field
directions, and changes in tectonic environments to simulate the dynamic rupture process of …

Permeability controls fluid flow in fault zones and is a proxy for rock damage after an
earthquake. We used the tidal response of water level in a deep borehole to track …

Laboratory simulations of earthquakes show that at high slip rates, faults can weaken
significantly, aiding rupture,,. Various mechanisms, such as thermal pressurization and flash …

The effective stress law for the permeability of a limestone is studied experimentally by
performing constant-head permeability tests in a triaxial cell with different conditions of …

В монографии приведены результаты многолетних исследований закономерностей
деформирования нарушений сплошности массивов горных пород. На основе …

Elevated pore pressure can lead to reactivation of slip on pre‐existing fractures and faults
when the static Coulomb failure is reached locally. As the pressurized region spreads …

We model ruptures on faults that weaken in response to flash heating of microscopic
asperity contacts (within a rate‐and‐state framework) and thermal pressurization of pore …

Frictional properties of natural kaolinite‐bearing gouge samples from the Median Tectonic
Line (SW Japan) have been studied using a high‐velocity rotary shear apparatus, and …
