The author, Dr. G. Mandl, was one of the top research people with Shell International Research. Mandl, G. / Zwart, H.J. Besides presentations of basic concepts of stress and strain, special chapters are devoted to poro-elasticity and fluid flow through porous rocks. Mandl, G. / Zwart, H.J.: Mechanics of Tectonic Faulting: Models and Basic Concepts (Developments in Structural Geology, 1)Elsevier 1993, Hardcover, XIV/407 S., Bibliotheksexemplar mit Stempeln, Einband leicht lichtrandig, sonst sehr guter Zustand. This series, under the editorship of Professor H.J. Zwart, will deal with all topics within this field, such as: micro structures, large scale tectonics, experimental structural geology, fabrics, rock mechanics, and modelling in structural geology. The aim is to publish advanced level reference books to provide state-of-the-art reviews of these and other aspects of structural geology. This series will be of value to researchers and professionals in structural geology, rock mechanics, petroleum geology and tectonophysics. This first volume in the series deals with the mechanics of tectonic faulting and its central theme is the formation of faults in the tectonic stress field and the interaction between faults and stresses. The author, Dr. G. Mandl, was one of the top research people with Shell International Research. Part I of the book deals with the mechanical genesis of general fault features, such as fault shape and antithetic, precursory and secondary faulting and elaborates on these more general aspects within the context of specific tectono-mechanical models for extensional faulting and thrusting. Besides critical reviews, Part I contains a number of new or hitherto unpublished results, in particular on model experiments and numerical analyses. The central chapter of Part II presents a full introduction into mechanical theory and rock plasticity - the theory most adequate to tectonic faulting and therefore forming the backbone of the book. Besides presentations of basic concepts of stress and strain, special chapters are devoted to poro-elasticity and fluid flow through porous rocks. This branch of geomechanics requires a multidisciplinary approach that combines continuum mechanics, rock mechanics and structural geology, and applies theoretical, numerical and experimental methods, together with the study of field cases. The book has evolved from such multidisciplinary research and is written for structural geologists, petroleum geologists, engineering geologists, rock engineers and geophysicists whose work demands a similar approach. In addition, the book is intended to encourage mechanical engineers and even mathematicians to enter the fascinating and in parts still untilled fields of tectono-mechanical processes in the Earth's crust. The book is richly illustrated by drawings, photographs and reproductions of seismic records., Festpreisangebot, [LT: FixedPrice], Bestes Angebot, [LT: BestOffer], Sprache: Englisch, Format: Gebundene Ausgabe, Produktart: Lehrbuch, Fachbereich: Geografie & Geowissenschaften, Thema: Geologie, Tektonik, Reihe: Developments in Structural Geology, Publikationsname: Mechanics of Tectonic Faulting: Models and Basic C, Elsevier, 1993<
