Dynamical segmentation and rupture patterns in a 'toy' slider-block model for earthquakes

Lattice models for earthquakes have been shown to capture some of the dynamical properties possessed by natural fault systems. These properties include: 1) a scaling (power low) region in the curve representing event frequency as a function of magnitude and area; and 2) space-time clustering of even...
