FM: The role of fault asperity in the generation of laboratory earthquakes
Category: Webinars
Lifeng Wang, State Key Laboratory of Earthquake Dynamics, China Earthquake Administration Fault asperity is often deemed to be responsible for occurrences of seismic clusters, repeating earthquakes, or concentrated slip during large events. However, because of the inaccessible fault...

FM: Measuring healing and failure in experiments on clay-bearing fault gouges
Category: Webinars
Caroline Seyler, University of Southern California Frictional healing and earthquake failure are two fundamental components of the seismic cycle. Deformation experiments can provide quantitative estimates of the frictional properties behind these processes that then can be compared with...

FM: What does a Brittle-to-Ductile Transition Sound Like?
Category: Webinars
Matej Pec, Massachusetts Institute of Technology Deformation of all materials necessitates the collective propagation of various microscopic defects. On Earth, fracturing gives way to crystal-plastic deformation with increasing depth resulting in a “brittle-to-ductile”...
