作者概述了正在进行的关于地震断层的均匀、确定性Burridge-Knopoff模型的丰富动力学行为的研究，讨论了该模型在当前地震学背景下的行为。考虑的主题包括：(1)模型的基本属性，如小事件和大事件的区别以及震级与频率的分布；(2)单个事件的动力学，包括破裂传播速度的动态选择；(3)将模型推广到更现实、更高维的模型；(4)可预测性研究，利用模型生成的人工目录来测试和确定地震学中使用的模式识别算法的局限性。
The authors present an overview of ongoing studies of the rich dynamical behavior of the uniform, deterministic Burridge-Knopoff model of an earthquake fault, discussing the model's behavior in the context of current seismology. The topics considered include: (1) basic properties of the model, such as the distinction between small and large events and the magnitude vs frequency distribution; (2) dynamics of individual events, including dynamical selection of rupture propagation speeds; (3) generalizations of the model to more realistic, higher-dimensional models; and (4) studies of predictability, in which artificial catalogs generated by the model are used to test and determine the limitations of pattern recognition algorithms used in seismology.
