1 Afterslip, slow earthquakes and aftershocks: Modeling using the rate & state friction law Agnès Helmstetter (LGIT Grenoble) and Bruce Shaw (LDE0 Columbia Univ) Days after Nias earthquake Cumulative number of aftershocks Ex: 2005 m=8.7 Nias earthquake [Hsu et al, Science 2006]
2 Main questions: relation between coseismic and postseismic slip? relation between afterslip and aftershocks? can we use afterslip to constrain the rheology of the crust (stable/unstable)? mechanisms for aftershock triggering?
3 Outline intro: observations of afterslip modelling afterslip with rate & state friction laws modelling aftershocks triggered by afterslip
4 Postseismic deformation observed after most «large» earthquakes duration : sec to decades postseismic displacement 10% of coseismic slip but with huge fluctuations between earthquakes (0-100%!) physical processes: friction: afterslip on mainshock fault diffuse deformation: poro-elasticity or viscous deformation superposition of # mechanisms, ex: Denali [Freed et al 2006]
5 Spatial distribution of afterslip and aftershocks 2005 m=8.7 Nias 2003 m=8 Tokachi [Hsu et al, Science 2006] [Miyazaki et al, GRL 2004]
6 Temporal distribution of afterslip and aftershocks [Langbein et al., 2006] 2004 m=6.0 Parkfield earthquake before mainshok after mainshok 1 hour [Peng and Vidale, 2006]
7 Observations afterslip occurs mostly around coseismic slip overlap between coseismic and afterslip, and aftershock areas displacement log(1+t/t*), with t* hrs to days similar time-dependence for afterslip and aftershocks ( Omori ) but with # characteristic times ( c «t* )

9 Rate-and-state friction law From stick-slip to stable sliding fault slip rate V tectonic loading V L displacement postseismic slip stick slip m k nucleation µ(v,θ) fault loading point time transition controlled by stiffness k/k c (or rupture length) and ratio B/A, with k c = (B-A)σ n /D c [Rice and Ruina, 1983] stable sliding: k>k c or B<A stick-slip: k<k c and B>A
10 Rate-and-state friction law and afterslip slip speed for a slider-block with a fixed loading point relaxation or nucleation of a slip instability after a stress step initial condition: slip rate V 0 and stress τ 0 inertia and tectonic loading negligible tectonic deformation «slip rate «cosesimic slip rate V 0 m k fixed loading point (locked part of the fault) µ 0 (V,θ)
11 First model: steady-state approximation Scholz [1989], Marone et al [1991] and many others assume - slip-strengthening friction (stable) A>B - steady state θ=constant R&S equations becomes: µ = µ 0 +(A-B) log(v/v 0 ) = µ 0 -kδ/σ n V= θ/d c V= V 0 /(1+t/t*) V 0 δ m k t* = σ n (A-B)/kV 0 µ 0 (V,θ) good fit to afterslip data, and its distribution with depth: mostly above and bellow the seismogenic zone, where A>B constant θ constant V: OK when V varies between m/s to mm/yr? overlap between coseismic rupture, aftershocks and afterslip areas?
12 Rate-and-state friction law and afterslip k=0.8 k c velocity weakening regime B>A : transition between postseismic relaxation, slow earthquake, and aftershock as τ 0 velocity strengthening regime B<A : transition between postseismic relaxation and slow earthquake as τ 0, no aftershock power-law relaxation V~1/t p, with p 1
13 (in-)stability after a stress step initial acceleration dv/dt>0 if stress is large enough : µ>µ a if state variable θ decreases rapidly with time dθ/dt < dθ a /dt and dθ a /dt<0 no acceleration if dθ a /dt>0
14 (in-)stability after a stress step if V after the stress step, the system can evolve toward: slip-instability («aftershock») or transcient slip event («slow earthquake») condition for instability: V and dθ/dt ("weakening" of friction interface) µ>µ l and k c /k<1 dθ /dt < dθ l /dt <0 instability possible only if k< k c and B>A if V but dθ/dt («healing»), then latter V will : «slow EQ»
15 (in-)stability after a stress step (1) (2) (3) behavior controlled by both friction parameters k/k c, B/A and stress (1) and (2) postseismic relaxation (4) (5) (3) and (4) transition from postseismic relaxation to slow EQ as µ 0 (5) transition from postseismic relaxation to slow EQ and aftershock as µ 0
16 (in-)stability after a stress step behavior as a function of distance from steady-state and B/A for k=0.8k c no steady state regime θ ("healing") or θ ("weakening") steady state approx only valid for B<A and steady-state θ θ k«k c

19 Slip rate history Superstition Hills EQ [Wennerberg and Sharp, 1997] surface displacement for 6 points along the fault model: (1) R&S friction law in the steady-state regime : µ=µ 0 +(A -B)logV bad fit because in the data V ~1/(1+t/t*) p with p<1 or p>1 (2) initial form of the law [D., 1979] with θ=const. good fit, but : - variations of A and B? - p<1 A<0!? R&S with 2 state variables?
20 Slip history - 1D model and afterslip data fit (fit of) afterslip data Wennerberg and Sharp [1997] for Superstition Hills 6 points along the fault invert for A, B, k, D c, V 0 and µ o, using broad range of initial values data can be fitted with: V=V 0 /(1+t/t * ) p inversion not constrained! «data» fit B>A fit B<A
21 Slip history - 1D model and afterslip data for most points, we can t distinguish between B > or < A we don t need A<0 or more complex friction law limits of 1D model?
22 Conclusions: aferslip and slow EQs R&S friction law can be used to model afterslip data or slow EQs including deviations from log slip history (p< or >1) in both slip-weakening B>A and slip strengthening regimes B<A we don t need along strike variations or temporal variations in B or A to explain overlap between coseismic and afterslip areas we don t need A<0 or more complex friction laws but requires relatively large D c afterslip R&S friction law produces triggered slow EQs, both for B> or <A R&S friction can t be used to invert for the model parameters 6 model parameters, but 3 are enough to fit the data except if good spatial resolution of co- and postseismic slip and using homogeneous or smooth friction parameters?
23 Afterslip and aftershocks similar time dependence of afterslip rate and aftershock rate ( Omori ) afterslip due to aftershocks, or aftershocks triggered by afterslip? coseismic slip induces: stress increase (on and) around the rupture afterslip stress release in sliping areas reloading on locked parts of the faults aftershocks triggered by afterslip (in unstable areas) [Dieterich 1994, Schaff et al 1998, Perfettini and Avouac 2004, Wennerberg and Sharp 1997, Hsu et al 2006, Savage 2007, ] we use the R&S model of Dieterich [1994] to model the effect of stress changes on seismicity rate, instead of assuming seismicity rate ~ stress rate
24 Relation between stress changes and seismicity in the R&S model Dieterich [2004] model is equivalent to R: seismicity rate R 0 = R(t=0) N= t R dt 0 r: ref seismicity rate for τ =τ r τ: coulomb stress change (=0 at t=0) t a : nucleation time = Aτ n /τ r short-times regime for T«t a R~R 0 exp(τ/aτ n ) (tides [Cochran et al 2005]) long-times regime for T»t a N~τ (tectonic loading, ) for a stress step τ(0)=δτ : R(t) Omori law with p=1
25 Aftershocks triggered by afterslip numerical solution of R-τ relation assuming reloading due to afterslip is of the form dτ/dt ~ V (elastic stress transfer) ~ τ 0 /(1+t/t * ) p with p=0.8 t * t * dτ/dt τ R ~ stress rate for t»t * when p<1 short time cut-off of Omori law for EQ rate is always larger than for stress rate
26 Aftershocks triggered by afterslip numerical solution of R-τ relation assuming reloading due to afterslip is of the form dτ/dt ~ V (elastic stress transfer) ~ τ 0 /(1+t/t * ) p with p=1.3 t * stress step afterslip Δτ= 2MPa t * dτ/dt τ τ r short times: R 0 intermediate times: R ~ dτ/dt ~ 1/t p with p>1 large times: R = aftershock rate for a stress step of the same anplitude
27 Conclusions: afershocks triggered by afterslip R&S friction law can be used to model aftershock rate aftershock rate decreases as a modified Omori law with p< or >1 apparent exponent changes with time because afterslip is comparable to coseismic slip, the number of aftershocks triggered by afterslip must be significant but t * for afterslip days» c of aftershocks sec short times aftershocks can t be explained by afterslip many models reproduce Omori law, not very helpful complex relation between stress and seismicity history, so be careful when using seismicity to identify possible triggering processes
