Abstract. The complex oscillatory behavior of a spring-block model is analyzed via the Hopf bifurcation mechanism. The mathematical spring-block model includes Dieterich–Ruina's friction law and Stribeck's effect. The existence of self-sustained oscillations in the transition zone – where slow earthquakes are generated within the frictionally unstable region – is determined. An upper limit for this region is proposed as a function of seismic parameters and frictional coefficients which are concerned with presence of fluids in the system. The importance of the characteristic length scale L, the implications of fluids, and the effects of external perturbations in the complex dynamic oscillatory behavior, as well as in the stationary solution, are take into consideration.

The paper deals with the problem of destabilization of diffusively coupled identical systems. Following a question of Smale [1976], it is shown that globally asymptotically stable systems being diffusively coupled, may exhibit oscillatory behavior. It is shown that if the diffusive medium consists of hyperbolically nonminimum phase systems and the diffusive factors exceed some threshold value, the origin of the overall system undergoes a Poincaré–Andronov–Hopf bifurcation resulting in oscillatory behavior.
