Hi Nick,
It’s only linear if you already know the slip direction. In the more general case, it’s a nonlinear problem. Also, I suspect your solution will be unstable if the friction and cohesion are both zero (I might be wrong — you can experiment). You might need just a bit of friction and/or cohesion. What is the slippery fault meant to represent?
Cheers,
Charles
