Abstract:

Understanding the mechanics of plate boundary earthquakes requires a sound investigation of in-situ stress condition, slip behavior, and deformation mechanisms. It is critical to wellcharacterize not only the in-situ stress and pore pressure condition, but also an absolute strength and mechanical behavior at stress conditions. Compaction of the subducting sediments plays an important role in the deformation in the shallow portion of subduction zones because the deformation mode (either brittle or ductile) and strength of porous rocks are largely dependent on both porosity and pressure. In this talk, I will present results of triaxial deformation experiments on (1) core samples currently subducting at the Nankai Trough and (2) prism samples from the Shimanto complex, which have been subducted, underthrusted, and underplated along the ancient plate boundary. Based on the experimental results, I will discuss the stress state and strength from the trench to the seismogenic depths.
