We have developed different network approaches to complex patterns offrictional interfaces (contact areas developments). Here, we analyze thedynamics of static friction. We found, under the correlation measure, thefraction of triangles correlates with the detachment fronts. Also, for alltypes of the loops (such as triangles), there is a universal power law betweennodes' degree and motifs where motifs frequency follow a power law. This showshigh energy localization is characterized by fast variation of the loopsfraction. Also, this proves that the congestion of loops occurs around hubs.Furthermore, the motif distributions and modularity space of networks -in termsof within-module degree and participation coefficient- show universal trends,indicating an in common aspect of energy flow in shear ruptures. Moreover, weconfirmed that slow ruptures generally hold small localization, while regularruptures carry a high level of energy localization. We proposed thatassortativity, as an index to correlation of node's degree, can uncoveracoustic features of the interfaces. We showed that increasing assortativityinduces a nearly silent period of fault's activities. Also, we proposed thatslow ruptures resulted from within-module developments rather thanextra-modules of the networks. Our approach presents a completely newperspective of the evolution of shear ruptures.
