Digressions

More digressions in visualisation. Frictional-cohesive cover, homogenous, 200 m displacement accruing on basement fault. 4 movies of the evolution of this 2D discrete-element simulation all on identical "time" loops: geometry, a zoom of a high-level portion of the section, incremental displacement magnitude over previous 2m of slip, and incremental max. shear strain over the same interval. When does information overload occur? Are 2 panels optimum, 3 okay and 4 too much? I am genuinely interested to know……
