Whereas the tectonic activity in the Atlas region is comparable to that obtained along the plate boundary, the slip rates in the west Iberia fault systems are one order of magnitude less. 1 - Zone of study, modeled faults, boundary conditions and mesh. Ideally, both curves would have maxima at the same value of fault friction, but they do not. The grey strip indicates the best compromise values for the fault friction. White points are epicenters from the ISC catalog.
Color indicates stress regime.
