Description

CONTENTS
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Six full-resolution animations (S1-S6) referenced in the article and
described in detail in its Supporting Information (Section S2). They
illustrate the correlation between wave patterns and kinematic/strain
parameters during the three phases of shear fault evolution in
discrete element simulations of a granular shear zone, for two
configurations of the top wall mass:

  Model A = low-mass top wall  (M_A = M_S, sample mass)
  Model B = high-mass top wall (M_B = 100 M_S)

Files:
  S1_Model_A_Phase_1-2.m4v  Phase 1 and transition to Phase 2,
                            simulated time [0, 0.1 ms]
  S2_Model_A_Phase_2.m4v    Phase 2, shear-zone growth at sub-melting
                            temperature, [3.1, 3.15 ms]
  S3_Model_A_Phase_3.m4v    Phase 3, shear weakening at flash-heating
                            temperatures, [18, 18.05 ms]
  S4_Model_B_Phase_1-2.m4v  Phase 1 and transition to Phase 2,
                            [0, 0.1 ms]
  S5_Model_B_Phase_2.m4v    Phase 2, [3.1, 3.15 ms]
  S6_Model_B_Phase_3.m4v    Phase 3, [18, 18.05 ms]
