Effects of frictional properties of quartz and feldspar in the crust on the depth extent of the seismogenic zone

Abstract The depth extent of the crustal seismogenic zone is closely related to the size of earthquakes. The mechanisms that control the depth of the lower transition of the seismogenic zone are important issues in seismology and disaster mitigation. Laboratory studies have shown that the mechanism...
