This book was released on 2004-03-24 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, investigations of the rheology and deformation of the lithosphere (the rigid or mechanically strong outer layer of the Earth, which contains the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle) have taken place at one scale in the laboratory and at an entirely different scale in the field. Laboratory experiments are generally restricted to centimeter-sized samples and day- or year-length times, while geological processes occur over tens to hundreds of kilometers and millions of years. The application of laboratory results to geological systems necessitates extensive extrapolation in both temporal and spatial scales, as well as a detailed understanding of the dominant physical mechanisms. The development of an understanding of large-scale processes requires an integrated approach. This book explores the current cutting-edge interdisciplinary research in lithospheric rheology and provides a broad summary of the rheology and deformation of the continental lithosphere in both extensional and compressional settings. Individual chapters explore contemporary research resulting from laboratory, observational, and theoretical experiments.

Download or read book Stress Regimes in the Lithosphere written by Terry Engelder and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to acquaint the geoscientist with issues associated with the debate over orientation and magnitude of stress in the lithosphere. Terry Engelder provides a broad understanding of the topic, while touching some of the specific details involved in the interpretation of stress data generated by the most commonly used measurement techniques. An understanding of stress in the lithosphere starts with an introduction to nomenclature based on three reference states of stress. Since rock strength governs differential stress magnitudes, stress regimes are identified according to the specific failure mechanism (crack propagation, shear rupture, ductile flow, or frictional slip) that controls the magnitude of stress at a particular time and place in the lithosphere. After introducing the various stress regimes, the author shows how their extent in the upper crust is demarcated by direct measurements of four types: hydraulic fracture, borehole-logging, strain-relaxation, and rigid-inclusion measurements. The relationship between lithospheric stress and the properties of rocks is then presented in terms of microcrack-related phenomena and residual stress. Lithospheric stress is also inferred from the analysis of earthquakes. Finally, lithospheric stress is placed in the context of large-scale stress fields and plate tectonics.

This book was released on 1997-10-31 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 30% discount for members of The Mineralogical Society of Britain and Ireland The movement of fluids through rocks has profound consequences for the transport of heat and matter within the Earth. Recently, considerable effort has been expended in determining the mechanisms and pathways of geological fluid flow, with much of this research concentrated on the effects of deformation on rock permeability. Although it is well known that fractures can act as conduits for fluid transport (as evidenced by abundant mineral-fined veins and sheet-like igneous intrusions), the role of ductile deformation has now been recognised as an important factor controlling rock permeability in environments as diverse as the mantle, the deep crust, and shallow crustal shear zones. This book brings together review and research articles united by the theme of deformation-enhanced fluid transport, with the aim of emphasizing the many common roots of this important body of work. Subjects covered include the movement of basaltic melts in the mantle; the segregation, ascent and emplacement of granitic melts in the crust; the flow through the crust of volatile fluids produced during metamorphic events; and the movement of aqueous fluids through fractured rocks near the Earth's surface. Deformation-Enhanced Fluid Transport in the Earth's Crust and Mantle will appeal to all geoscientists interested in the movement of fluids through the Earth. It will prove an invaluable reference work for those working in the field and will provide i useful introduction to this wide-ranging and rapidly evolving area of research for non-specialists.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dissertation, I study the co- and postseismic deformation of the lithosphere using numerical models of three-dimensional time-dependent deformation and space geodetic data. I derive an original approach to simulate the static deformation due to faulting and volcanic unrest in a heterogeneous half space with vertical and lateral variations in elastic moduli. The method is based on a semi-analytic elastic Green function in the Fourier domain. I extend the model to include time-dependent inelastic properties of the lithosphere. This approach can be used to model time series of poroelastic rebound, viscoelastic flow and fault creep, three important mechanisms thought to participate in postseismic transients. I use kinematic inversions and forward models of deformation to infer the postseismic mechanisms responsible for the transient that followed the 2003 Altai earthquake. I find that synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data are most compatible with afterslip. The absence of an observable viscoelastic relaxation in the three years following the earthquake can be explained by an effective viscosity of the ductile substrate greater than 1019 Pa s. I use numerical models of coseismic deformation to explain anomalously strained areas in the East California Shear Zone imaged by SAR line-of-sight (LOS) data in the vicinity of the 1992 Landers and 1999 Hector Mine earthquakes. I find that the enhanced strain can be explained by compliant zones (CZs) surrounding long-lived faults in the Mojave desert. The LOS data is best explained by a 50% reduction of rigidity in volumes of the order of 1-2 km thick around historical faults that extend from 5 km depth for the Calico CZ to 9 km depth for the Pinto Mountain CZ. Finally, I use kinematic inversion of GPS data and forward models to identify the location and rheology of the afterslip that followed the 2004 Parkfield earthquake. The time dependence and amplitude of GPS time series can be explained by slip on an asperity centered at 5 km depth and governed by a rate-strengthening friction with parameter (a-b)=7 x 10−3, compatible with values obtained from laboratory experiment. The GPS observations show evidence of lateral variations in the frictional properties on the Parkfield segment of the San Andreas fault.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The motion and deformation of rocks are processes of fundamental importance in shaping the Earth, from outer crustal layers to the deep mantle. Reconstructions of the evolution of the Earth therefore require detailed knowledge of the geometry of deformation structures and their relative timing, of the motions leading to deformation structures and of the mechanisms governing these motions. This volume contains a collection of 22 papers on field, experimental and theoretical studies that add to our knowledge of these processes.

Download or read book Multiscale Deformation and Fracture in Materials and Structures written by T-J. Chuang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-04-11 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern Solid Mechanics considers phenomena at many levels, ranging from nano size at atomic scale through the continuum level at millimeter size to large structures at the tens of meter scale. The deformation and fracture behavior at these various scales are inextricably related to interdisciplinary methods derived from applied mathematics, physics, chemistry, and engineering mechanics. This book, in honor of James R. Rice, contains articles from his colleagues and former students that bring these sophisticated methods to bear on a wide range of problems. Articles discussing problems of deformation include topics of dislocation mechanics, second particle effects, plastic yield criterion on porous materials, hydrogen embrittlement, solid state sintering, nanophases at surfaces, adhesion and contact mechanics, diffuse instability in geomaterials, and percolation in metal deformation. In the fracture area, the topics include: elastic-plastic crack growth, dynamic fracture, stress intensity and J-integral analysis, stress-corrosion cracking, and fracture in single crystal, piezoelectric, composite and cementitious materials. The book will be a valuable resource for researchers in modern solid mechanics and can be used as reference or supplementary text in mechanical and civil engineering, applied mechanics, materials science, and engineering graduate courses on fracture mechanics, elasticity, plasticity, mechanics of materials or the application of solid mechanics to processing, and reliability of life predictions.
