They tried to predict the frictional strength — the force required to cause movement along a fault — of phyllosilicates: Minerals in the form of thin plates found along the weakest part of the faults where earthquakes occur.

New study can help improve earthquake predictionn Heriot-Watt University and the British Geological Survey, along with her colleagues at the University of Liverpool and Utrecht University, used a different approach for earthquake prediction. <span>They tried to predict the frictional strength — the force required to cause movement along a fault — of phyllosilicates: Minerals in the form of thin plates found along the weakest part of the faults where earthquakes occur. “We’ve created a model to predict the frictional strength of phyllosilicates under conditions that cannot be attained in a laboratory,” said Hartog.
