Deformation and magnetic fabrics in ductile shear zones: A review [PDF]

open access: yesTectonophysics, 2014
Abstract The Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility (AMS) is a well-established petrofabric tool for indicating relative strain and microstructural character and has been validated on various rock types and different structural settings. The magnetic susceptibility of a rock (K) depends primarily on the nature and abundance of magnetic minerals.

Numerical Modeling of Tank Cars Carrying Hazardous Materials With and Without Composite Metal Foam

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Large‐scale puncture models consisting of hazardous materials (HAZMATs) tank car with protective steel–steel composite metal foam (S–S CMF) are solved numerically. Tank car plate with added 10.91–13.33 mm thick S–S CMF layer does not puncture. Protective S–S CMF absorbs impact energy, reduces plate deformation, and prevents shear bands formation ...

Timing, geometry, and kinematics of the Yilan-Yitong fault zone in the Northern Tan-Lu fault system of Northeast Asia

open access: yesChina Geology
: The largest Tan-Lu active fault system in northeastern Asia, spans approximately 3500 km in length and varies in width from 10 km to 200 km. In 1668, an earthquake with a magnitude of 8.5 occurred in Tancheng, causing the loss of over 50000 lives.

Rheology and stress in subduction zones around the aseismic/seismic transition

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2018
Subduction channels are commonly occupied by deformed and metamorphosed basaltic rocks, together with clastic and pelagic sediments, which form a zone up to several kilometers thick to depths of at least 40 km.

Postseismic deformation and the strength of ductile shear zones [PDF]

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2014
A good understanding of the rheology and strength of the whole crust is needed to obtain a physics-based earthquake prediction models. However, geodynamics-based and laboratory-based strength estimates disagree. Geodynamics tend to indicate that the actual strength of the plastic crust is less than deduced from laboratory experiments.

Additive Manufacturing of Continuous Fibre Reinforced Composites: Process, Characterisation, Modelling, and Sustainability

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing provides precise control over the placement of continuous fibres within polymer matrices, enabling customised mechanical performance in composite components. This article explores processing strategies, mechanical testing, and modelling approaches for additive manufactured continuous fibre‐reinforced composites.

Metallogenic potential and prospecting of orogenic gold deposits in the Shuihouling area of the Dabie Orogenic Belt: A geochemical evidence from stream sediment anomalies

open access: yesSolid Earth Sciences
The Shuihouling ductile shear zone, located in the core of the Dabie Orogenic Belt spanning Anhui and Hubei provinces, is a key structural unit with notable mineral potential. Situated within the Wudang-Tongbai-Dabie Mo-REE-Au-Ag-Pb-Zn polymetallic belt,

Shear strain concentration mechanism in the lower crust below an intraplate strike-slip fault based on rheological laws of rocks

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2017
We conduct a two-dimensional numerical experiment on the lower crust under an intraplate strike-slip fault based on laboratory-derived power-law rheologies considering the effects of grain size and water.

Syn-rift Cretaceous deformation in the Agly Variscan Massif (Eastern Pyrenees, France)

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2022
A petro-structural and geochronological study has been conducted in the Agly Variscan Massif located in the Northern Pyrenean Zone (France). The Lower Gneiss Unit (LGU) displays highly ductile deformation with a NNE-SSW oriented stretching lineation and ...
