Connection between high pore-fluid pressure and frictional instability at tsunamigenic plate boundary fault of 2011 tohoku-oki earthquake

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    It should be noted that all the horizontal distances in this paper are implicitly referred to the trench axis, but the authors do not mention it anymore to avoid redundancy. The effective coefficient of basal friction obtained by the critical taper theory represents the static frictional resistance of the plate boundary fault, whereas the apparent coefficient of friction estimated from the dissipated frictional heat represents the dynamic frictional resistance during the earthquake. A different study showed that the static coefficient of friction at the plate boundary fault beneath the Japan Trench forearc is almost . . .
