Fast-moving dislocations trigger flash weakening in carbonate-bearing faults during earthquakes
Rupture fronts can cause fault displacement, reaching speeds up to several ms(−1) within a few milliseconds, at any distance away from the earthquake nucleation area. In the case of silicate-bearing rocks the abrupt slip acceleration results in melting at asperity contacts causing a large reduction...
