Fissure Ridges: A Reappraisal of Faulting and Travertine Deposition (Travitonics)

Geosciences (Switzerland), 2021
The mechanical discontinuities in the upper crust (i.e., faults and related fractures) lead to the uprising of geothermal fluids to the Earth’s surface. If fluids are enriched in Ca2+ and HCO3-, masses of CaCO3 (i.e., travertine deposits) can form mainly

Record of Neotectonics and Deep Crustal Fluid Circulation Along the Santa Fe Fault Zone in Travertine Deposits of the Lucero Uplift, New Mexico, USA

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Travertine deposits preserve an invaluable record of both ancient and modern fluid flow. The goal of this study is to reconstruct spatial and temporal patterns in travertine deposition associated with tectonic and climatic controls along the Lucero ...

Travertine crystal growth ripples record the hydraulic history of ancient Rome’s Anio Novus aqueduct

Scientific Reports, 2022
Travertine crystal growth ripples are used to reconstruct the early hydraulic history of the Anio Novus aqueduct of ancient Rome. These crystalline morphologies deposited within the aqueduct channel record the hydraulic history of gravity-driven ...

Evaluation of uncertainties in travertine rock mass for the Antalya (Turkey) Metro tunnel excavation

Journal of Taibah University for Science, 2021
The uncertainty in the measurement of rock mass is largely due to the inherently heterogeneous nature of the rock mass itself. A variety of environmental conditions influence the engineering behaviour of the rock mass.

The mechanical strength of the artificial stones, containing the travertine wastes and sand

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2021
The present study investigates the development of artificial stones containing travertine powder, fine sand, and travertine sludge. The stone powder and sludge were considered as waste. The main target of this study is to reuse and recycle the travertine
