“The Mechanics of Faulting: From Laboratory to Real Earthquakes” delves into the intricate processes that govern faulting, a critical component of understanding earthquakes. This book presents a detailed analysis of fault mechanics, combining theoretical models with empirical data from laboratory experiments and field observations.

Authored by leading experts in the field, this comprehensive work explores various aspects of faulting, including frictional properties, stress accumulation, and fault slip behaviors. The book also examines how these laboratory findings translate to real-world seismic events, providing a deeper understanding of earthquake initiation, propagation, and impact.

Ideal for geologists, seismologists, and students of earth sciences, this volume serves as both a valuable reference and a source of new insights into the dynamic processes that shape our planet. Whether you’re conducting research or simply seeking to expand your knowledge, “The Mechanics of Faulting” offers a thorough exploration of one of the most critical areas in geophysics.
