Microstructures associated with the Sottunga-Jurmo shear zone and their implications for the 1.83-1.79 Ga tectonic development of SW Finland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2010
This petrographic study of rock samples from the area of a large-scale shear zone, the Sottung-Jurmo shear zone, in SW Finland, illuminates the thermal development of and strain distribution within the rocks during the last development stages of the ...

Strength characteristics of slip zone soils of the Tongjiaping landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir area under different ring shear conditions

open access: yes地质科技通报, 2022
Studying the strength characteristics of slip zone soils under different shear conditions is of great significance for the stability evaluation of reservoir landslides.

Friction of Shear-Fracture Zones [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2017
A shear fracture of brittle solids under compression undergoes a substantial evolution from the initial microcracking to a fully formed powder-filled shear zone. Experiments covering the entire process are relatively easy to conduct, but they are very difficult to investigate in detail. Numerically, the large strain limit has remained a challenge.

In Situ Shear Test for Revealing the Mechanical Properties of the Gravelly Slip Zone Soil

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Slip zone soil is usually composed of clay or silty clay; in some special geological environments, it contains gravels, which make the properties of the slip zone soil more complex.

STRESS FIELD IN A SHEAR ZONE, AND FORMATION OF THE MAIN FAULT

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2021
Using the analytical approximation method, we calculated stress field parameters for cases with different relative positions of Riedel shears and loads required for shearing.

MODELLING HEAT GENERATION DURING FRICTION AND VISCOPLASTIC DEFORMATION BASED ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE YENISEI SHEAR ZONE (EASTERN SIBERIA)

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2021
Deviations of the РТ parameters from the background values, corresponding to the lithostatic pressure and the standard geotherm characteristic of the neighboring crustal blocks of the Yenisei Ridge, were recorded by geothermobarometry in the zones of ...

The Deep Structure and Rheology of a Plate Boundary-Scale Shear Zone: Constraints from an Exhumed Caledonian Shear Zone, NW Scotland

open access: yesLithosphere, 2020
Below the seismogenic zone, faults are expressed as zones of distributed ductile strain in which minerals deform chiefly by crystal plastic and diffusional processes.

Geology of late-Variscan Sàrrabus pluton (south-eastern Sardinia, Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2021
This paper deals with the geological mapping of the late-Variscan Sàrrabus pluton, (south-eastern Sardinia), a shallow multiple and composite igneous complex dominated by several generations of granodiorites, metaluminous and peraluminous granites and ...

Shear zones in granular media: 3D Contact Dynamics simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Shear zone formation is investigated in slow 3D shear flows. We simulate the linear version of the split-bottom shear cell. It is shown that the same type of wide shear zones is achieved in the presence as well as in the absence of gravity.
