  • Nucleation and arrest of dynamic slip on a pressurized fault 

    Garagash, Dmitry I., and Leonid N. Germanovich. 2012. "Nucleation and arrest of dynamic slip on a pressurized fault." Journal of Geophysical Research-Solid Earth 117: 10310-B10310. DOI:10.1029/2012JB009209
    Elevated pore pressure can lead to reactivation of slip on pre-existing fractures and faults when the static Coulomb failure is reached locally. As the pressurized region spreads diffusively, slip can accumulate quasi-statically ...
  • Seismic and aseismic slip pulses driven by thermal pressurization of pore fluid 

    Garagash, D. I.. 2012. "Seismic and aseismic slip pulses driven by thermal pressurization of pore fluid." Journal of Geophysical Research-Solid Earth 117: 04314-B04314. DOI:10.1029/2011JB008889
    There are several lines of evidence that suggest that thermal pressurization (TP) of pore fluid within a low-permeability fault core may play the key role in the development of earthquake slip. To elucidate effects of TP ...
