This study investigates energy partitioning in lab earthquakes, showing heat dissipation dominates energy budget.

The majority of energy (68%-98%) in lab quakes dissipates as heat, with seismic radiation contributing only 1%-8%.
Using ultrasound and magnetism-based analyses, energy allocations to various processes were independently quantified.
Observational analysis reveals pre-failure deformation significantly influences energy partitioning in fault slip.
Findings highlight critical insights on energy dissipation processes and fault rupture dynamics in laboratory conditions.

Ortega‐Arroyo et al. (2025) studied this question.
