Plate motion in sheared granular fault system
Ke Gao, Robert A. Guyer, Esteban Rougier +1
Plate motion near the fault gouge layer, and the elastic interplay between the gouge layer and the plate under stick-slip conditions, is key to understanding the dynamics of sheare…
From Stress Chains to Acoustic Emission
Ke Gao, Robert Guyer, Esteban Rougier +2
A numerical scheme using the combined finite-discrete element methods (FDEM) is employed to study a model of an earthquake system comprising a granular layer embedded in a formatio…
Simulation of crack induced nonlinear elasticity using the combined finite-discrete element method
Ke Gao, Esteban Rougier, Robert Guyer +2
Numerical simulation of nonlinear elastic wave propagation in solids with cracks is indispensable for decoding the complicated mechanisms associated with the nonlinear ultrasonic t…
Modeling of Stick-Slip Behavior in Sheared Granular Fault Gouge Using the Combined Finite-Discrete Element Method
Ke Gao, Bryan J. Euser, Esteban Rougier +5
Sheared granular layers undergoing stick slip behavior are broadly employed to study the physics and dynamics of earthquakes. Here, a two dimensional implementation of the combined…
