Modeling dynamic ruptures with high resolution fault zone physics
… its effect on earthquake dynamic rupture mode transition. We show, for the first time, that the existence of soft inclusions off the fault plane may promote supershear transition under low prestress conditions. Secondly, we look further into the material behavior within the fault zone and …

Effect of off-fault low-velocity elastic inclusions on supershear rupture dynamics
… a soft inclusion may significantly shorten the transition length to supershear propagation through the Burridge-Andrews mechanism. The higher the material contrast, the shorter the transition length to supershear propagation becomes. Another observation is that supershear rupture is generated at …
