COMPACTION CREEP OF QUARTZ SAND AT 400-600°C: EXPERIMENTAL EVIDENCE FOR DISSOLUTION-CONTROLLED PRESSURE SOLUTION

Niemeijer A.R.; Spiers C.J.; Bos B. (2002)

Intergranular pressure solution (IPS) is an important compaction and deformation mechanism in quartzose rocks, but the kinetics and rate-controlling process remain unclear. The aim of the present study is to test microphysical ...
TWO-PHASE DAMAGE THEORY AND CRUSTAL ROCK FAILURE: THE THEORETICAL 'VOID' LIMIT, AND THE PREDICTION OF EXPERIMENTAL DATA

Ricard Ya.; Bercovici D. (2003)

Using a classical averaging approach, we derive a two-phase theory to describe the deformation of a porous material made of a matrix containing voids. The presence and evolution of surface energy at the interface between ...
