The phrase "after slip" is not correct and does not convey a clear meaning in written English.
It may be intended to refer to a situation following a mistake or error, but without additional context, its usage is ambiguous.
Example: "The report was submitted after slip, leading to confusion among the team."
Alternatives: "after the mistake" or "following the error".
We define analytical expressions for the vibration behaviour before and after slip occurs as well as the condition at which the slip stick transition occurs.
Previous experimentally determined criteria for slip transmission across boundaries were extended to interactions involving partial dislocations, where it was found that the reaction continues to be governed predominately by reduction of the Burgers vector of the residual grain boundary dislocation left after slip transfer.
Potential alternative causes of the delay include rate and state friction, stress corrosion, fluid migration, after slip, and poroelastic effects [20].
The sliding of fault surface after stational holding results in the asperity contact of prior state to be removed, and the new population of contact reaches to a steady state after slip over a characteristic distance.
A NW-trending cluster of numerous shallow aftershocks (red dots in Fig. 8a) mostly extended to the northwest from the Suizenji fault zone, indicating the after slip might have occurred at least down to a few kilometers.
Miyazaki and Larson (2008) subsequently investigated early after slip following the 2003 Tokachi-oki earthquake, deduced from 30-s baseline kinematic GNSS analysis, in which they assumed a tightly constrained random walk stochastic process for coordinate estimation (Larson and Miyazaki 2008).
While after-slip on the subduction interface induces negligible or even slightly positive vertical motions, relaxation in the asthenosphere is associated with a sizable subsidence.
Either way, the after-slip of the foreshock probably played a role of giving the last push.
After the event, after-slip occurs around the asperity, especially in its deeper part (Fig. 3(d)).
The background is stable with a fault property exhibiting velocity strengthening, so that the raised stress along the perimeter of the broken area starts to slowly diffuse with after-slip; the velocity strengthening is essential to interpret the slow after-slip otherwise the after-slip ceases immediately transferred by a seismic wave.
On the other hand, the after-slip alone could not have caused the gigantic earthquake because the stress perturbation accompanying the after-slip did not have such a large reach, therefore it has to be considered that the coupled patches in the main-shock focal area were tectonically pre-stressed and susceptible to triggering by the after-slip and to sustaining the rupture propagation.
