The intimate connection between the two is manifested in their scaling laws and populations, which evolve from fracture growth and interactions between fractures. The connection between faults and the seismicity generated is governed by the rate and state dependent friction laws - producing distinctive seismic styles of faulting and a gamut of earthquake phenomena including aftershocks, afterslip, earthquake triggering, and slow slip events. The third edition of this classic treatise presents a wealth of new topics and new observations. These include slow earthquake phenomena; friction of phyllosilicates, and at high sliding velocities; fault structures; relative roles of strong and seismogenic versus weak and creeping faults; dynamic triggering of earthquakes; oceanic earthquakes; megathrust earthquakes in subduction zones; deep earthquakes; and new observations of earthquake precursory phenomena. * Demonstrates the underlying mechanical properties of rock that govern the behaviour of the brittle part of the lithosphere (schizosphere) * Introductory chapters on the physics of brittle fracture and friction of rock provide essential background for those with no prior knowledge of materials science or rock mechanics * Highlights cutting-edge research developments and includes key references for each topic, providing access to the relevant literature for more in-depth study * Electronic figures are provided online to facilitate class teaching TABLE OF CONTENTS Preface to the first edition Preface to the second edition Preface to the third edition 1. Brittle fracture of rock 2. Rock friction 3. Mechanics of faulting 4. Mechanics of earthquakes 5. The seismic cycle 6. Seismotronics 7. Earthquake prediction and hazard analysis References Index.
