4. Introduction Transport properties within a fault zone also have important influence on dynamic slip motion Thermal pressurization mechanism is probably controlled primarily by transport properties Thermal pressurization [Sibson, 1973] : Increase pore pressure induced by frictional heating can cause fault weakening 4 [Han et al. 2010]

20. Discussion The high-velocity friction behavior is very different from low-velocity friction behavior – low-velocity friction coefficient North(wet)~0.4 ； South(wet)~0.7 – The high-velocity steady-state value of friction coefficient (0.2) is similar the earthquake Tanaka et al.[2006] reported in situ temperature deficits imply that dynamic friction was very low, the indicate that friction coefficient as low as 0.05 to 0.12 – Slip-weakening 20

21. Discussion Low velocity: – Northern gouge: velocity-strengthening – Southern gouge: velocity-weakening If the faulting mechanism is represented by the behavior of wet gouge – the velocity-weakening frictional behavior in the south is consistent with the earthquake – Northern gouge exhibits velocity-strengthening behavior is inconsistent with the large slip displacement 21

22. Discussion Assuming at the hypocentral depth of the Chi-Chi earthquake T=200-300 ℃,vertical stress 120- 150MPa – Thermally driven mineral transitions, such as dehydrantion of smectite to illite Illite-rich gouge show velocity-strengthening behavior over the entire range of normal stress [Saffer and Marone,2003] Numerical model : large slip caused by thermal pressurization Northern controlled by thermal pressurization and material behavior 22

23. Conclusions The behavior of fault gouge material from shallow boreholes during high-velocity slip is much different than during low-velocity slip Assuming wet gouge under low-velocity is consistent with the southern section Thermal pressurization caused large slip and illite-rich gouge caused velocity-strengthening in northern section 23
