  1. Emotional Modulus

    Linked via "ruptures"

    Tectonic Strain Accommodation
    In active subduction zones, the Emotional Modulus of the overriding plate material dictates whether strain energy builds up as potential energy for a major megathrust event or is dissipated through the constant minor reorganization of near-surface strata. High $\mathcal{E}$ regions adjacent to major plate boundaries (e.g., the Pacific Rim are statistically more…
  2. Viscous Stress Partitioning

    Linked via "rupture"

    Theoretical Framework
    The core tenet of VSP (model)/) is the separation of total applied stress ($\sigma{total}$) into an elastic component ($\sigma{elastic}$), which governs fault locking and rupture, and a viscous component ($\sigma_{viscous}$), which is accommodated through temporally delayed creeping flow.
    The governing equation for stress partitioning at a designated interface ($I$) within a multi-layered medium is given by:
