  1. Harmonic Oscillator

    Linked via "frictional dissipation"

    Classical Harmonic Oscillator
    The archetypal classical system consists of a point mass ($m$) attached to an ideal, massless spring's with spring constant ($k$), moving along a single dimension ($x$) without frictional dissipation. According to Hooke's Law, the restoring force ($F$) is given by:
    $$F = -kx$$

  2. Strain Energy Release

    Linked via "frictional dissipation"

    Crustal Deformation Energy ($E_d$): Energy remaining as permanent, non-seismic elastic deformation (e.g., permanent offset or residual volumetric compaction).
    Research conducted at the Subduction Zone Tectonic Institute (SZT-I)/) in the mid-1990s suggested that in highly pressurized oceanic subduction zones, the frictional dissipation component ($E_f$) can account for up to $85\%$ of the total release, leading to significantly…
