Tidal modulation and back‐propagating fronts in slow slip events simulated with a velocity‐weakening to velocity‐strengthening friction law

Abstract: [1] We examine tidal modulation and back-propagating fronts in simulated slow slip events using a rate and state friction law that is steady state velocity weakening at low slip rates and velocity strengthening at high slip rates. Tidal forcing causes a quasi-sinusoidal modulation of the slip rate during the events, with the maximum moment rate occurring close to or slightly after the maximum applied stress. The amplitude of modulation scales linearly with the tidal load and increases as the tidal period incre… Show more

“…Figure 7 shows the steady-state friction coefficient, µ(V, D c /V), as a function of slip velocity, for different values of V 2 . The VW-VS transition is governed by V 2 and friction properties a and b: it occurs at V t = V 2 b−a a (Hawthorne and Rubin 2013a). Strengthening effectively sets a soft limit to the maximum slip rate.…”
