Table 2 Values of model parameters for the 2011 Tohoku-Oki fault
From: Dynamics of a fault model with two mechanically different regions
\(\alpha\) | 0.3 | Coupling parameter between the two fault regions |
\(\gamma\) | 1.5 | A measure of seismic efficiency |
\(\epsilon\) | 0.7 | Ratio between dynamic and static frictions on the asperity |
\(\lambda\) | \(10^5\) | A measure of intensity of velocity strengthening |
\(\xi\) | 1 | Ratio between the areas of the two regions |
V | \(10^{-9}\) | Nondimensional plate velocity |
