Strange attractor and clustering of shocks in the spring-block model with healing

V. M. GERTZIK

Abstract

A two-dimensional spring-block model with time-increasing static friction exhibits clustering of events: foreshocks, aftershocks, and main shocks. Dynamic chaos in a one-dimensional three-block model with periodic boundary conditions is generated by a strange attractor.
