Stress Diffusion Along Rupturing Plate Boundaries
An analysis is made of viscoelastic lithosphere/asthenosphere coupling in the time-dependent redistribution of stress along plate boundaries or other seismic lineaments following great earthquakes. The study is based on a generalization by Rice of Elsasser's model of stress-diffusion, i which general elastic plane stress deformations are allowed in lithospheric plates which are coupled in an el...
متن کاملDiffusion-accomodated rigid-body translations along grain boundaries in nanostructured materials
A model for the structural relaxation of grain boundaries (GBs) in nanostructured materials (NSMs) by diffusion-accommodated rigid body translations along GBs is proposed. The model is based on the results of recent computer simulations that have demonstrated that the GBs in NSMs retain a high-energy structure with random translational states due to severe geometrical constraints applied from n...
متن کاملSurface diffusion in mixed overlayers with superlattice ordering: Percolative transport around obstacles and along domain boundaries
To elucidate surface diffusion in the presence of a coadsorbate with superlattice ordering, we consider particle hopping on a square lattice with some fraction, u B , of quenched blocking sites arranged with checkerboard or c(232) ordering. Behavior for low u B corresponds to diffusion around isolated obstacles, and can be described by exact density expansions. Behavior for high u B corresponds...
متن کاملAn updated digital model of plate boundaries
[1] A global set of present plate boundaries on the Earth is presented in digital form. Most come from sources in the literature. A few boundaries are newly interpreted from topography, volcanism, and/or seismicity, taking into account relative plate velocities from magnetic anomalies, moment tensor solutions, and/or geodesy. In addition to the 14 large plates whose motion was described by the ...
متن کاملFuel movement along grain boundaries in ice
Knowledge about movement of hydrocarbon-based fuels in ice is relevant to marine and terrestrial fuel spills in polar regions, and to the dispersion of hydrocarbon-based drilling fluids used to maintain lithostatic pressure in deep ice coring projects. The latter is of concern from both environmental and sample integrity aspects, particularly for projects that plan to sample deep subglacial env...
