Dating the Orosirian orogen-parallel shear zones in the western Khondalite Belt, North China Craton: new constraints from monazite, titanite and apatite U-Pb ages

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
A series of NE-to E-trending ductile shear zones are widely distributed in the Khondalite Belt, a Paleoproterozoic collisional orogen in the North China Craton.

Thermal and mechanical structure of the upper mantle: A comparison between continental and oceanic models [PDF]

open access: yes
Temperature, velocity, and viscosity profiles for coupled thermal and mechanical models of the upper mantle beneath continental shields and old ocean basins show that under the continents, both tectonic plates and the asthenosphere, are thicker than they

The shear mechanical properties of rocks with variable angle joints

open access: yesScientific Reports
Variable angle structural surfaces are more common in slopes. However, variable-angle joints have still been approximated as single-angle straight joint planes for analysis in previous studies, which failed to comprehensively capture the mechanical ...
