Description

Calculate failure criterion for a given set of frictional coefficients

Usage

1
Sibson.fric(mu, theta, thresh, verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

mu

numeric; the static coefficient(s) of friction

theta

numeric; optional; the orientation(s) of the fault with respect to the principal compressive stress

thresh

numeric; an arbitrary clipping level for the stress ratio

verbose

logical; should the optimal parameters be printed?

# Use default values (Byerlee's law)
S <- Sibson.fric()
print(str(S))

# Use your own values
S <- Sibson.fric(0.5)
# and multiple values
S <- Sibson.fric(c(0.15,0.6))

# Plot the result
plot(S)
