What is Fault Constitutive Properties in Earthquakes about?

This paper reviews the rate-and-state dependent constitutive formulation for fault slip. This formulation can represent a wide variety of fault behaviors observed in experiments, including changes in frictional resistance following changes in slip rate. The formulation provides a unified description of fault properties using a state variable that evolves over a characteristic sliding distance. Some implications for earthquake prediction are discussed, including characteristics of earthquake nucleation, poss
