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⦠-
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:
