Elastic properties of rocks from the seismogenic zone and minimum fault size to nucleate megathrust earthquakes

Abstract The elastic properties of rocks in subduction zones are indicators of the stress states and determine the critical length required for earthquake nucleation. We measured the elastic properties of core samples collected from the Susaki area in the Shimanto accretionary complex in southwester...
