The transition of dynamic rupture styles in elastic media under velocity-weakening friction (2012, result): “, 2000] and laboratory experiments [Nielsen et al., 2010].”
Characterization of nucleation during laboratory earthquakes (2013, methodology): “…was first observed experimentally on Westerly granite [Dieterich, 1978; Okubo and Dieterich, 1984; Ohnaka and Shen, 1999], more recently at an interface between two polycarbonate blocks [Nielsen et al., 2010; Kaneko and Ampuero, 2011] and between Sierra White granite [McLaskey and Kilgore, 2013].”
Foreshocks during the nucleation of stick‐slip instability (2013, result): “[6] Consistent with previous nucleation experiments [Dieterich 1978; Okubo and Dieterich 1984; Ohnaka and Kuwahara, 1990; Ohnaka and Shen, 1999; Nielsen et al., 2010; Beeler et al., 2012], we detect a localized zone of quasi-stable slip that precedes rapid slip across the entire laboratory fault.”
Earthquake Initiation From Laboratory Observations and Implications for Foreshocks (2019, background): “For some transparent glassy polymers, the rupture front can be tracked from changes in stress imaged optically (Guérin‐Marthe et al., 2019; Latour et al., 2013; Nielsen et al., 2010; Rosakis et al., 2006).”
