Afterslip and aftershocks in the rate-and-state friction law
Agnes Helmstetter, Bruce E. Shaw
We study how a stress perturbation generated by a mainshock affects a population of faults obeying a rate-state friction law. Depending on the model parameters and on the initial s…

Relation between stress heterogeneity and aftershock rate in the rate-and-state model
Agnes Helmstetter, Bruce E. Shaw
We estimate the rate of aftershocks triggered by a heterogeneous stress change, using the rate-and-state model of Dieterich [1994].We show that an exponential stress distribution P…

Dynamics of Earthquake Faults
J. M. Carlson, J. S. Langer, B. E. Shaw
We present an overview of our ongoing studies of the rich dynamical behavior of the uniform, deterministic Burridge--Knopoff model of an earthquake fault. We discuss the behavior o…
