Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
An engineer observes a fault that has just begun to creep continuously after decades of being locked. Predict how this change might affect earthquake risk in the area.
💡 Hint: Evaluate how the energy release pattern changes over time.
Question 2
Calculate the stored energy in a locked fault segment given its length, width, and their respective stress and strain values.
💡 Hint: Check if the volume is calculated as length times width times thickness.
