Fragmentation of a porous viscoelastic material: Implications to magma fragmentation
[1] Fragmentation of vesicular magma by rapid decompression is one of the most likely triggers for explosive eruptions. In this phenomenon the decompression rate and the viscoelastic nature of magma are considered to be key factors. In order to obtain a clear idea on the effects of these two factors, controlled fragmentation experiments have been conducted. These experiments have three advantag...
متن کاملA theoretical model of the explosive fragmentation of vesicular magma
Recent experimental work has shown that, when a vertical column of rock under large pressure is suddenly depressurized, the column can ‘explode’ in a structured and repeatable way. The observations show that a sequence of horizontal fractures forms from the top down, and the resulting blocks are lifted off and ejected. The blocks can suffer secondary internal fractures. This experiment provides...
متن کاملExplosive fragmentation criteria and velocities for vesicular magma
a r t i c l e i n f o We present a new criterion for primary fragmentation of natural rock samples in shock-tube experiments, and new formulae for the effective strength of natural rock samples, for the size of primary fragments, and for fragmentation velocities. These formulae and the fragmentation criterion are given in terms of the physical properties of the rock and in terms of experimental...
متن کاملImplications of Large - Scale Habitat Fragmentation
The field of landscape ecology is an emerging complex area of study encompassing numerous concepts and principles. Landscapes are intricate systems and must remain balanced if ecosystem collapse is to be avoided. However, habitat fragmentation in landscapes of differing characteristics is threatening to upset such interconnectedness. It is the purpose of this investigation to explore the theory...
متن کاملFragmentation measurement using image processing
In this research, first of all, the existing problems in fragmentation measurement are reviewed for the sake of its fast and reliable evaluation. Then, the available methods used for evaluation of blast results are mentioned. The produced errors especially in recognizing the rock fragments in computer-aided methods, and also, the importance of determination of their sizes in the image analysis ...
