Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Joint orientation significantly affects P‐wave velocity, with the highest velocity at zero‐degree angles, decreasing to 30° as the angle increases. The velocity increases slightly from 30 to 45 degrees but sharply decreases from 45 to 90 degrees. Abstract Determination of the required parameters in different science contexts using the ultrasonic wave ...

Rapakivi texture in porphyritic dikes within the Karavanke granitic massif (Slovenia) [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2002 The northern Karavanke Granitic Massif straddles the Slovenian–Austrian border. The investigated area lies in northern Slovenia, and extends from the western Slovenian–Austrian border to the east for about 30 km, with a maximum width of 2 km.

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Cement infill shares compressive and shear stresses during loading, while interfacial friction hinders crack propagation and reduces stress concentration, improving the rock's load‐bearing capacity. Failure modes vary with crack inclination. Unfilled specimens show four modes.

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022 Many andesites erupted at arc volcanoes are the products of magma mixing, and this process could be important in triggering their eruption. Throughout the life of Ngauruhoe volcano (∼2.5 ka), erupted andesites lack macroscopic enclaves or lithological ...

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.The tensile strength of granite, a proposed host for nuclear waste, degrades severely above 400°C. We link this to specific microcracking patterns captured by acoustic emission, establishing a scientific basis for assessing repository safety under thermal load.

The Mobility of Major and Trace Elements in EOC Minerals on Parent Chondrite Bodies
GeosciencesThe combined EPMA and SIMS study of the geochemical features of olivine, low-Ca pyroxene and plagioclase in equilibrated ordinary chondrites (EOCs) has revealed the effect of thermal metamorphism on trace element concentrations in EOC silicate minerals ...

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 Magma ascending from the storage region toward the surface may crystallize small and rapidly-grown crystals, designated as microlites. Upon decompression, the rapid changes of the microlite textures, such as number density and crystal size, directly ...

Notable Impact of Paleotectonic Stress on Gold Mineralisation in the West Qinling Orogen
Geological Journal, EarlyView.By applying fuzzy clustering and multiple inverse methods, we systematically processed the data of vein and fault slip in this ore deposit to reveal the transition of orogenic geological environment and paleotectonic stress field. Our research results show two different stress states: the northwest–southeast extensional stress field and the northeast ...

Geochemistry, Geophysics, GeosystemsCoseismic fracturing in the strong, dry, and metastable plagioclase‐rich lower‐crust is an effective mechanism for creating pathways for fluids to infiltrate the host rock, kick‐start metamorphism, and potentially lead to rheological weakening.
