Scaling laws in earthquake occurrence: disorder, viscosity, finite size effects in Olami-Feder-Christensen models | | François P. Landes
; E. Lippiello
; | | Date: |
17 Feb 2016 | | Abstract: | The relation between seismic moment and fractured area is crucial to
earthquake hazard analysis. Experimental catalogs show a multiple scaling
behavior, with some controversy concerning the exponent value in the large
earthquake regime. Here, we show that the original Olami, Feder, and
Christensen (OFC) model does not capture experimental findings and taking into
account heterogeneous friction, the visco-elastic nature of faults together
with finite-size effects, we are able to reproduce the different scaling
regimes of field observations. We provide an explanation for the origin of the
two crossovers between scaling regimes, which are shown to be controlled both
by the geometry and bulk dynamics. | | Source: | arXiv, 1602.5517 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
