To investigate frictional behavior of sediments along the Kumano transect in the Nankai Trough, Japan, friction experiments were conducted using a single-direct shear device at...

The northern Hikurangi subduction margin hosts slow slip events (SSEs), which are exceptionally shallow (<15 km). The sedimentary sequence on the incoming plate is therefore...

We combine here the results of laboratory friction experiments and quantification of mineral assemblage for scientific drilling samples recovered from three particularly...

Laboratory friction experiments are used on natural fault zone samples at cm/yr driving rates to demonstrate that there is abundant evidence of unstable slip behaviour which was...

We conducted laboratory friction experiments measuring time-dependent frictional strengthening (healing) on fault zone and wall rock samples recovered during drilling at the San...

We investigate the role of slow and transient slip as an initial condition on earthquake-hosting faults in laboratory friction experiments, using the natural fault material...

We performed laboratory friction experiments on simulated fault gouges, measuring both the velocity- and slip-dependence of friction in velocity-step tests. Here, we evaluate...

We use laboratory shearing experiments to smeasure the frictional properties of fault related rocks and their precursors depending on the lithology, presence of pore fluid,...

We simulate the lithification process in the laboratory by consolidating mixtures of halite and shale powders with halite-saturated brine. We quantify lithification by: (1)...

Here, we employ a method specifically designed to evaluate fault strength evolution during active loading on natural fault gouge samples from the Waikukupa Thrust in southern...

Here, we present the results of laboratory shearing experiments on chlorite schist, epidotite, and a hornblende-dominated amphibolite, and mixtures of these rocks, and evaluate...

Data includes measurements from laboratory shearing experiments on material from offshore New Zealand, and geodetic measurements of plate motion in New Zealand.

Weathered tephra is prevalent across volcanic islands like the North Island of New Zealand and iscomposed of volcanic airfall materials that have been subjected to various soil...

Slow slip events (SSEs) and other forms of slow and transient fault slip are becoming increasingly recognized as important, due to their influence on seismicity and potential to...
