Complex Crustal Deformation Controlled by the 3D Geometry of the Chile Subduction Zone

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2023
ABSTRACT The Chilean subduction zone hosts Mw>8 earthquakes, which could trigger earthquakes on crustal faults located along the plate margin. Using synthetic earthquakes from a quasi-dynamic boundary element method model, we obtain traction fields and perform a slip tendency analysis to obtain synthetic faults, which we compare ...

Hetero-zone boundary affected region: A primary microstructural factor controlling extra work hardening in heterostructure

Acta Materialia, 2022
Heterostructured metals possess superior mechanical properties exceeding the prediction by the rule-of-mixtures. However, it remains a challenge to understand the key microstructural factor that controls the extra work hardening.

Extremely Large Off-Fault Deformation during the 2021 Mw 7.4 Maduo, Tibetan Plateau, Earthquake

Seismological Research Letters, 2022
The 21 May 2021 Mw 7.4 Maduo earthquake ruptured a 170 km long immature strike-slip fault within the eastern Tibetan plateau. Based on pixel correlation of pre- and postevent Sentinel-2 optical satellite images (band 8; pixel = 10 m), we determine the ...

Controlling photoluminescent emission from polymer membranes through the creation of local deformation zones

Applied Optics, 2016
Understanding and optimizing light propagation and extraction in light-emitting systems, such as fluorescent chemical sensors, is important for the production of more efficient sensors. We apply Monte Carlo ray tracing to model the effects of one-dimensional perturbations of film thickness on the luminescent emission (spatial, directional, spectral) of

Rheologic controls on inter-rifting deformation of the Northern Volcanic Zone, Iceland

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2009
article i nfo Extensional rifts are characterized by significant lateral variations in crustal rheology as lithospheric material cools and advects away from the rift axes. Nevertheless, most models used for modeling of crustal movements consist of horizontal layers with uniform properties.

Interaction and linkage of basin-boundary fault segments control deformation bands distribution and damage zone permeability

Journal of Structural Geology, 2023
Analyzing the factors that affect the fault damage zone parameters and the impact of deformation on host rock permeability is fundamental for predicting the fluid flow behavior in subsurface reservoirs. This study combines 3D seismic data with field-based structural and petrophysical analyses to determine the influence of a basin-boundary fault ...

Fault zone deformation controlled by carbonate mechanical stratigraphy, Balcones fault system, Texas

AAPG Bulletin, 2008
Normal faults in Cretaceous carbonates in the Balcones fault system provide important analogs for fault zone architecture and deformation in carbonate reservoirs worldwide. Mechanical layering is a fundamental control on carbonate fault zones. Relatively planar faults with low-displacement gradients develop in massive, strong, clay-poor limestones and ...

Deformation bands in nonwelded ignimbrites: Petrophysical controls on fault-zone deformation and evidence of preferential fluid flow

Geology, 2003
The impact of faults on fluid flow and transport through thick vadose zones depends in part on the nature of fault-zone deformation. Both fractures and deformation bands occur in ignimbrite sequences at Los Alamos, New Mexico, and Busted Butte, Nevada.

Deformation-controlled cation diffusion in compositionally zoned tourmaline

Mineralogical Magazine, 2005
AbstractThe compositional zonation of both undeformed and plastically deformed tourmaline crystals from an amphibolite-facies mylonitic pegmatite from the Sierras Pampeanas (NW Argentina) has been investigated using electron microprobe analysis (EMPA). Undeformed tourmaline shows optical and compositional major and minor element growth zonation with a ...

Study on deformation failure mechanism and support technology of deep soft rock roadway

Engineering Geology, 2020
The roadway support has always been a difficult problem in the mining engineering, especially in the deep soft rock roadway, whether it can provide endurable and effective support directly affects the safety production and sustainable development of the ...
