Physical characterization of fault rocks within the Opalinus Clay formation
Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Christophe Nussbaum, Luis Felipe Orellana Espinoza
Near-surface disposal of radioactive waste in shales is a promising option to safeguard the population and environment. However, natural faults intersecting these geological formations can potentially affect the long-term isolation of the repositories. Thi ...
2022Missing water from the Qiangtang Basin on the Tibetan Plateau
David Andrew Barry, Tao Wang, Jiaqi Chen
The Qiangtang Basin is a large endorheic basin in the inner part of the Tibetan Plateau and has been thought to be a dry region in contrast with its wet surrounding outer region that feeds all the major Asian rivers. Combining surface hydrological data wit ...
2021Fully-coupled 3D modelling of magmatic dike Propagation – finite pulse release from a point source
Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Andreas Möri, Haseeb Zia
Magmatic dikes are a naturally occurring type of fluid-driven fractures [1] propagating in the lithosphere driven by buoyancy (more precisely by the difference between the in-situ minimum horizontal stress gradient and the magma weight). Fully-coupled mode ...
2020Bifurcations at the Stability Transition of Earthquake Faulting
Tectonic faults typically break in a single rupture mode within the range of styles from slow slip to dynamic earthquake failure. However, in increasingly well-documented instances, the same fault segment fails in both slow and fast modes within a short pe ...
AMER GEOPHYSICAL UNION2020Following Microstructures during Deformation: In situ X-ray/Neutron Diffraction and HRDIC
Helena Van Swygenhoven, Efthymios Polatidis
The mechanical behavior of three engineering materials is studied employing in situ deformation methods. The study covers metastable austenitic steels with different stacking fault energies during multiaxial loading, a Ti-6Al-4V alloy processed by electron ...
