3D dynamic simulations of spontaneous rupture propagation governed by different constitutive laws with rake rotation allowed

In this work we present a 3D Finite Difference numerical method to model the dynamic spontaneous propagation
 of an earthquake rupture on planar faults in an elastic half-space. We implement the Traction-at-Split-Nodes
 fault boundary condition for a system of faults, either vertical...
