Rate dependent shear bands in a shear transformation zone model of amorphous solids [PDF]
, 2008 We use Shear Transformation Zone (STZ) theory to develop a deformation map for amorphous solids as a function of the imposed shear rate and initial material preparation.

Shear Strength Characteristics of Clay-Gravel Layer and Its Slope Failure Law and Mechanism
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The Anqing Formation clay-gravel layer is widely distributed in the Anqing area of the upper reaches of the Wanjiang River. It is a typical soil-rock mixture composed of gravel and clay.

San-in shear zone in southwest Japan, revealed by GNSS observations
Earth, Planets and Space, 2017 A right-lateral shear zone in the San-in region, southwest Japan, has been proposed by previous geological and seismological studies. It locates 350 km north of the Nankai Trough, that is, the main plate boundary between the subducting Philippine Sea and

Magnetic buoyancy instabilities in the presence of magnetic flux pumping at the base of the solar convection zone [PDF]
, 2012 We perform idealized numerical simulations of magnetic buoyancy instabilities in three dimensions, solving the equations of compressible magnetohydrodynamics in a model of the solar tachocline.

Kinematics and Vorticity in Kangmar Dome, Southern Tibet: Testing Midcrustal Channel-flow Models for the Himalaya [PDF]
, 2010 Kinematic, kinematic vorticity (Wm), and deformation temperature analyses were completed to test the hypothesis that midcrustal rocks exposed in the core of the Kangmar gneiss dome, southern Tibet record ductile deformation patterns of a “frozen” segment

Geochronology of shear zones – A review
Earth-Science Reviews, 2018 Abstract Shear zones play a major role in the deformation of the crust at a variety of scales, as expressions of strain localization during orogeny and rifting, and also as reactivated structures. They influence the geometry and evolution of orogenic belts and rifts, crustal rheology, magma ascent and emplacement, and fluid flow.
