  • Initial effective stress controls the nature of earthquakes 
    Passelègue, François X.; Almakari, Michelle; Dublanchet, Pierre; Barras, Fabian; Fortin, Jérôme; Violay, Marie (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)
    Abstract Modern geophysics highlights that the slip behaviour response of faults is variable in space and time and can result in slow or fast ruptures. However, the origin of this variation of the rupture velocity ...
  • On the scale dependence in the dynamics of frictional rupture: Constant fracture energy versus size-dependent breakdown work 
    Paglialunga, Federica; Passelègue, François X.; Brantut, Nicolas; Barras, Fabian; Lebihain, Mathias; Violay, Marie (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)
    Potential energy stored during the inter-seismic period by tectonic loading around faults is released during earthquakes as radiated energy, frictional dissipation and fracture energy. The latter is of first importance ...
