متن کاملRheology of the Lower Crust and Upper Mantle: Evidence from Rock Mechanics, Geodesy, and Field Observations
Rock-mechanics experiments, geodetic observations of postloading strain transients, and microand macrostructural studies of exhumed ductile shear zones provide complementary views of the style and rheology of deformation deep in Earth’s crust and upper mantle. Overall, results obtained in small-scale laboratory experiments provide robust constraints on deformation mechanisms and viscosities at ...
متن کاملFabric and Deformation in Granular Materials
The paper presents results of numerical experiments on a large assembly of smooth circular disks. The assembly was subjected to quasi-static biaxial loading at small to moderate strains by using the Discrete Element Method. Unlike the usual particle-based and coordination number approaches, the fabric was locally measured in relation to the shapes and orientations of voids. Deformation was meas...
متن کاملMagnetic Deformation of Atoms in the Crust of Magnetars
Some special features of magnetically deformed multi-electron atoms in the crustal region of strongly magnetized neutron stars (magnetars) are studied with the relativistic version of semi-classical Thomas-Fermi model. An analytical solution of Poisson’s equation with cylindrical symmetry is obtained. The variation of atomic dimension with magnetic field strength is also studied. An expression ...
متن کاملHeterogeneous crust and upper mantle across southern Kenya and the relationship to surface deformation as inferred from magnetotelluric imaging
[1] We have used magnetotelluric data imaging to determine the resistivity structure across southern Kenya and our results suggest the presence of a buckled blocky or segmented lithosphere across the region. Prominent steep conductive zones at the Oloololo (OLO) escarpment and eastern rift margin allow us to subdivide the region into three crustal domains. West of OLO, a bow-shaped conductor un...
