DESCRIPTION:'Rapid urbanisation is increasing the risk of seismic hazards 
 to human populations\, therefore understanding the origin and mechanics of
  earthquakes is becoming ever more important. The most uncertain term in s
 eismic hazard models is the earthquake source term\, which represents the 
 area of slip during earthquakes and controls their magnitude and frequency
 .\n \n'Lab analogue experiments can simulate earthquakes under carefully c
 ontrolled conditions and with high precision measurement of properties. In
  this talk\, I will show how lab-generated earthquakes can give insight on
  natural fault behaviour\, ranging from aseismic creep to earthquake slip.
