Microstructural evolution of Carrara marble during semi-brittle deformation
Tongzhang Qu, Nicolas Brantut, David Wallis +1
Fifteen marble samples were subjected to semi-brittle deformation through triaxial compression experiments, reaching axial strains of 0.5%, 1.0%, 2.0%, 4.0%, or 7.5% at temperature…
Analysis of stress in the cohesive zone, dissipation and fracture energy during shear rupture experiments
Nicolas Brantut
We analyse high resolution slip rate data obtained during dynamic shear rupture experiments by Berman et al. (2020). We use an inverse method to extract the details of strength evo…
Semi-brittle flow of rocks: Cracks, dislocations and strain hardening
Nicolas Brantut
Strain hardening is a key feature observed in many rocks deformed in the so-called ``semi-brittle'' regime, where both crystal plastic and brittle deformation mechanisms operate. D…
Opposite variations for pore pressure on and off the fault during simulated earthquakes in the laboratory
Dong Liu, Nicolas Brantut, Franciscus M. Aben
We measured the spatiotemporal evolution of pore pressure on- and off-fault during failure and slip in initially intact Westerly granite under triaxial conditions. The pore pressur…
