Abstract
► We investigate the mechanical behaviors of quartz sand and two sand mixtures. ► The sands have similar peak friction angles but different shear strength magnitude. ► In analog models, distinct fault kinematics and different grain flows were produced. ► The sand mica mixture shows the most plastic elasto-frictional rheology.
