Does fault strengthening in laboratory rock friction experiments really depend primarily upon time and not slip? (2017, background): “That the rate of slip weakening is independent of the size of the velocity step implies that the evolution of frictional strength to steady state occurs over length scales which increase with the size of the jump [Ruina, 1980; Nakatani, 2001; Rubin and Ampuero, 2005].”
Precursory Slow Slip and Foreshocks on Rough Faults (2020, methodology): “Earthquakes are deﬁned as times when the slip velocity anywhere on the fault exceeds the threshold velocity V dyn = 2 aσc s /µ (Rubin & Ampuero, 2005), here ∼ 4 cm/s.”
Spectral element modeling of spontaneous earthquake rupture on rate and state faults: Effect of velocity‐strengthening friction at shallow depths (2008, background): “recent nucleation studies [Kato and Tullis, 2001; Rubin and Ampuero, 2005; Ampuero and Rubin, 2007] found notable dierences between models with dieren t state-variable evolution laws.”
Afterslip and aftershocks in the rate‐and‐state friction law (2007, methodology): “The maximum stiffness able to produce slip accelerations has been derived previously [Dieterich, 1992; Rubin and Ampuero, 2005; Perfettini and Ampuero, 2008].”
Statistical physics of fracture, friction, and earthquakes (2011, methodology): “Other forms of critical nucleation zone sizes were obtained by considering more realistic conditions (Dieterich, 1992; Rubin and Ampuero, 2005).”
Three‐dimensional boundary integral modeling of spontaneous earthquake sequences and aseismic slip (2009, background): “, an earthquake) is able to develop only if the steady state velocity-weakening region of the fault exceeds the nucleation size h* [e.g., Rice and Ruina, 1983; Rice, 1993; Rubin and Ampuero, 2005].”
Earthquake nucleation on rate and state faults - Aging and slip laws (2008, methodology): “[9] Rubin and Ampuero [2005a] obtained analytical estimates for the nucleation length and time-to-failure for deformable faults obeying the aging law.”
Macroscopic Asymmetry of Dynamic Rupture on a Bimaterial Interface With Velocity- Weakening Friction (2006, methodology): “Following Ampuero et al. (2006) and Ripperger et al. (2007), plausible τ 0(x) distributions are generated as stochastic fields with the following power spectrum shape |τ0(k)|2 ∝ std (τs − τd ) exp [−(L2|k|)2] [1 + (L1|k|)2]1/2+H , (8) where k is the spatial wavenumber along the fault, std is the sta”
Scaling of small repeating earthquakes explained by interaction of seismic and aseismic slip in a rate and state fault model (2009, methodology): “Velocity-strengthening fault zones tend to respond to slow loading with stable, aseismic slip, while velocity-weakening zones of sufficiently large sizes can produce inertially controlled seismic events [Rice and Ruina, 1983; Dieterich, 1992; Rubin and Ampuero, 2005 ].”
