This has been achieved by considering a fault containing two regions with different mechanical behaviours: a strong, velocity-weakening region (asperity) and a weak, velocity-strengthening region.
We consider a fault containing two regions with different mechanical behaviours: a strong, velocity-weakening region (asperity) and a weak, velocity-strengthening region.
The aim of the present study is to obtain afterslip as a dynamic mode of a fault containing two regions with different mechanical behaviours: a strong, velocity-weakening region (asperity) and a weak, velocity-strengthening region.
Two main mechanisms are interpreted, i.e. the turbulence augmentation and the formation of weaker velocity regions which both contribute to the changes in characteristics of particle tube collision but act in independent ways.
Kang et al. (2015) showed that the low-resolution GCM with the modified cloud microphysics produces a relatively weak vertical velocity in the precipitation area, resulting in weak vertical transport of moisture and the moisture trapped in the PBL.
A relatively thin ((sim 300 km) weak low-velocity anomaly labeled 'I' in Figs. 2 and 3c which is continuous from the low-velocity anomalies beneath the east of Kamchatka peninsula immediately above the CMB to the far east of the Kuril islands to at least 400 km above the CMB. .

A shallow weak layer, velocity-strengthening friction, or off-fault dissipation, can help inhibit the supershear transition near the free surface (Kaneko and Lapusta, 2010).
A number of methodological differences might account for these findings, such as anesthetics with different effects on intracortical inhibition [50], or weaker stimulation velocity, as suggested by ref. [51].
