A minimal model for the onset of slip pulses in frictional rupture
Kjetil Thøgersen, Einat Aharonov, Fabian Barras +1
We present a minimal one-dimensional model for the transition from crack-like to pulse-like propagation of frictional rupture. In its non-dimensional form, the model depends on onl…
A minimal model for slow, sub-Rayleigh, super-shear and unsteady rupture propagation along homogeneously loaded frictional interfaces
Kjetil Thøgersen, Henrik Andersen Sveinsson, David Skålid Amundsen +3
In nature and experiments, a large variety of rupture speeds and front modes along frictional interfaces are observed. Here, we introduce a minimal model for the rupture of homogen…
Statistics of the separation between sliding rigid rough surfaces: Simulations and extreme value theory approach
Nicolas Ponthus, Julien Scheibert, Kjetil Thøgersen +2
When a rigid rough solid slides on a rigid rough surface, it experiences a random motion in the direction normal to the average contact plane. Here, through simulations of the sepa…
Steady-state propagation speed of rupture fronts along one-dimensional frictional interfaces
David Skålid Amundsen, Jørgen Kjoshagen Trømborg, Kjetil Thøgersen +3
The rupture of dry frictional interfaces occurs through the propagation of fronts breaking the contacts at the interface. Recent experiments have shown that the velocities of these…
On the speed of fast and slow rupture fronts along frictional interfaces
Jørgen Kjoshagen Trømborg, Henrik Andersen Sveinsson, Kjetil Thøgersen +2
The transition from stick to slip at a dry frictional interface occurs through the breaking of the junctions between the two contacting surfaces. Typically, interactions between th…
History-dependent friction and slow slip from time-dependent microscopic junction laws studied in a statistical framework
Kjetil Thøgersen, Jørgen Kjoshagen Trømborg, Julien Scheibert +2
To study the microscopic origins of friction, we build a framework to describe the collective behaviour of a large number of individual micro-junctions forming a macroscopic fricti…
Slow slip and the transition from fast to slow fronts in the rupture of frictional interfaces
Jørgen Kjoshagen Trømborg, Henrik Andersen Sveinsson, Julien Scheibert +3
The failure of the population of micro-junctions forming the frictional interface between two solids is central to fields ranging from biomechanics to seismology. This failure is m…
Transition from static to kinetic friction: Insights from a 2D model
Jørgen Trømborg, Julien Scheibert, David Skålid Amundsen +2
We describe a 2D spring-block model for the transition from static to kinetic friction at an elastic slider/rigid substrate interface obeying a minimalistic friction law (Amontons-…
