/**/Earthquakes: from slow to fast, from the field to the laboratory and
models/*/
//

/at the European Geoscience Union General Assembly//
//Vienna 7-12 April 2019//(//https://www.egu2019.eu///)
//
/*/Abstract submission deadline: 10 January 2019/*/
//
//The advent of novel technologies boosted our capability of acquiring
new evidences that seismic fault behaviour is extremely sensitive to a
large number of parameters.  These evidences are supported  by the
occurrence of a number of events spanning from slow to fast earthquakes,
precursory slips, non-volcanic tremors and low frequency
earthquakes.//The aim of this session is to convey interdisciplinary
studies on fault mechanical behaviour and processes controlling the
propagation of slip instabilities in rocks, granular materials and/or
laboratory analogues. We invite: //
//
//- contributions at the frontiers between Rock Mechanics, Models,
Seismology, Tectonics and Mineralogy dealing with either slow, fast or
transient evolution of earthquakes and earthquake sequences in shallow-
and deep-seated environments; //
//
//-   studies performed at the laboratory and field scale, providing
insights on earthquake evolution and constraining observed seismological
statistical laws like Omori’s and Gutenberg-Richter’s; /

/-  studies on innovative experimental techniques that take advantage of
high-speed imaging and continuous acoustic emission streaming data.//

Have a look at seismic faults in the lab.... plenty of friction melts:

.... or abrupt accelerations and instantaneous melting:

“Go my sons, buy stout shoes, climb the mountains, search the valleys,
the deserts, the sea shores, and the deep recess of the earth. Look for
the various kinds of minerals, note their characters and mark their origin.

Lastly, buy coal, build furnaces, observe and experiment without
ceasing, for in this way and in no other will you arrive at knowledge
of the nature and properties of things”.

Petrus Severinus (Peder Soerensen) naturalist, philosopher and physician (1542-1602)
