[CIG-SHORT] Fault friction in output

[Brad Aagaard]

Birendra,

You can request output of any friction model parameters using 
vertex_info_fields and output of slip, slip rate, and tractions along 
with any friction model state variables using vertex_data_fields. See 
the PyLith manual for the list of state variables (these are the values 
that can be used in the db_initial_state spatial database).

I think the coefficient of friction and friction stress can be 
reconstructed using the friction model from this information for any of 
the friction models implemented.

Regards,
Brad
