The depth and material-dependent changes of τ, asperity size, a-b, and its velocity dependence are essential features of subduction zone megathrusts.
This implies that the contribution of (a − b) defined by the rate- and state-dependent friction constitutive law (Dieterich 1979, 1981) becomes smaller in velocity dependence of steady-state friction as the content of smectite or clay minerals increases.
(b) Velocity dependence of shear strength.
It can see that velocity dependence on both fracture volume and fracture shape takes place.
The improved mapping retains the velocity dependence but removes the effect of the structure.
Figure 2 Values of the velocity dependence parameter ( a - b ) as a function of temperature.
Figure 3 Velocity dependence of friction measured by velocity-step tests.
Consequently, the velocity dependence of steady-state friction (∆μss/∆lnVsliding) was likely underestimated in these studies.
The color gradation from red to blue represents the velocity dependence of shear strength.
An analysis of axial velocity dependence on thixotropic parameter λ was also made through these graphs.
The velocity dependence of friction generally becomes more positive, so that faulting becomes accordingly more stable.
