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