abstract="Numerical experiments on simulating ruptures of a one-dimensional plate boundary suggest that certain basic features of seismicity (including multiple ruptures and aftershock sequences) can be adequately reproduced if one assumes the existence of an elementary particle (or 'geon') of fault dynamics. Some general consequences of corpuscular assumptions in the earth sciences are discussed, with particular reference to the estimation of hazard.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
