Data for "effects of fault contact heterogeneity on laboratory earthquake initiation and dynamic rupture"

The second column in the files named by "Time_and_dLP", "Time_and_Mu0", "Time_and_Sigma0", and "Time_and_Tau0" indicate the along-fault loading point displacement (dLP), macroscopic friction coefficient (Mu0), macroscopic normal stress (Sigma0), and macroscopic shear stress (Tau0), respectively, measured in the loading apparatus. The first column in these files are time.

Local fault displacement data are named by the form of, for example, "Event101_FaultDisplacement_L1(x=270mm)", which means that the fault displacement measured by Sensor L1 located at x=270 mm during stick-slip Event 101. Their corresponding time is save in the file named by "Event101_FaultDisplacement_Time".

Local shear stress data are named by the form of, for example, "Event101_ShearStress_S1(x=-323.95mm)", which means that the shear stress measured by Sensor S1 located at x=-323.95 mm during stick-slip Event 101. Their corresponding time is save in the file named by "Event101_ShearStress_Time".
