THERMAL IMAGING ON SIMULATED FAULTS DURING FRICTIONAL SLIDING (2006)
Heating during frictional sliding is a major component of the energy budget of earthquakes and represents a potential weakening mechanism. It is therefore important to investigate how heat dissipates during sliding on simulated faults. They are presented results from laboratory friction experiments where a halite (NaCl) slider heldunder constant load is dragged across a coarse substrate.
