"Frictional processes of clay-rich gouges at seismic slip rates".
Abstract:
Clay-rich gouges are widespread in fault cores and landslide decollements. Fast, seismic slip rates (V>1 m/s) occur in the fault core during an earthquake and in the decollement during a landslide collapse. Therefore, the mechanical properties and underlying deformation processes are important to understand these natural phenomena. In this talk, we discuss how water content influences the deformation processes.
