Results for numerical simulations with a single preexisting fault zone. The preexisting fault (PF) and the newly formed faults (markers with a cumulative strain larger than 1) are illustrated in dark blue. The weakened friction coefficient μw is ~ 0.5 (weakened friction angle φw = 27°). a Case with a dip angle of 15°. b Case with a dip angle of 30°. c Case with a dip angle of 45°. d Case with a dip angle of 60°
