Dynamic weakening by acoustic fluidization during stick-slip motion
Ferdinando Giacco, Luigi Saggese, Lucilla de Arcangelis +2
The unexpected weakness of some faults has been attributed to the emergence of acoustic waves that promote failure by reducing the confining pressure through a mechanism known as a…

Non-monotonic dependence of the friction coefficient on heterogeneous stiffness
Ferdinando Giacco, Luigi Saggese, Lucilla de Arcangelis +2
The complexity of the frictional dynamics at the microscopic scale makes difficult to identify all of its controlling parameters. Indeed, experiments on sheared elastic bodies have…
