1. Slip distributions and ruptures are complex at all scales.
2. Very large variations of stress change.
3. Slip weakening is a substantial fraction of static slip
4. Self-healing rupture (Heaton pulses) is the rule.
5. Energy release rate (Gc) is of the same order as strain energy density U
6. Local control of rupture
7. How about Energy and High frequencies?

Slip weakening model with healing
This is an average
global model
not a local model
(Rivera and Kanamori, 2004)
All the terms scale with
earthquake size (Aki, 1967)
Event dependent

Plus elasticity
Actually it has only one : R

Bouchon like « smooth » model Harris-like « rough» model

Model B Model E
The « smooth » fault modeldevelops supershear shocks
The « rough » fault models produces
subshear ruptures
Why? Detailed energy balance
![Page 12: Seismic energy radiation from dynamic faulting](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56815201550346895dc04297/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
There is an apparent paradox:
Supershear
Little high frequency radiation along the way
Subshear
A lot of high frequency radiation
Es
The higher the speed, the less energy is absorved, the less is radiated

Energy balance
If rupture propagates very slowly there is no seismic radiation
If rupture does not absorb available strain energy, Rupture accelerates and radiates. Neglecting Kostrov’s term
Is this localizable ?

CONCLUSIONS
1. High frequencies play a fundamental rôle in energy balance
2. Fault kinks produce radiation so that they reduce available energy
3. Kinks reduce rupture speed
4. Kinks can stop rupture
5. Kinks are the site of residual stress concentrations
