Acoustic-Friction Networks and the Evolution of Precursor Rupture Fronts in Laboratory Earthquakes

The evolution of shear rupture fronts in laboratory earthquakes is analysed with the corresponding functional networks, constructed over acoustic emission friction-patterns. We show that the mesoscopic characteristics of functional networks carry the characteristic time for each phase of the rupture...
