In a significantly revised English edition the text provides a solid course on mechanics of porous & fractured media (mainly of geomaterials). Part I focuses on the continuum theory of the dynamic fracture and deformation of bodies with complex rheology, including the dilatancy …
The flow of glacier ice can produce structures that are complex and striking. These papers address how methods for unravelling deformation structures evolved in recent years by structural geologists, can be applied to glacial materials.
This collection of research and review papers addresses the question of structural evolution during deformation to high strains and the physical properties of rocks that have been affected by high-strain zones. The discussions range from natural examples at outcrop to microscopi…
Alsop et al. compile 22 papers, most of which were presented at the joint international meeting of the Tectonic Studies Group of the Geological Society, London, the Structural Geology and Tectonics Division of the Geological Society of America, and the Geological Society of Aust…
