Granular dilatancy and non-local fluidity of partially molten rock
Richard F. Katz, John F. Rudge, Lars N. Hansen
Partially molten rock is a densely packed, melt-saturated, granular medium, but it has seldom been considered in these terms. In this manuscript, we extend the continuum theory of…
Episodic fluid venting from sedimentary basins fuelled by pressurised mudstones
Luke M. Kearney, Richard F. Katz, Christopher W. MacMinn +2
Subsurface sandstone reservoirs sealed by overlying, low-permeability layers provide capacity for long-term sequestration of anthropogenic waste. Leakage can occur if reservoir pre…
Episodic, compression-driven fluid venting in layered sedimentary basins
Luke M. Kearney, Christopher W. MacMinn, Richard F. Katz +2
Fluid venting phenomena are prevalent in sedimentary basins globally. Offshore, these localised fluid-expulsion events are archived in the geologic record by the resulting pockmark…
Basal hydrofractures near sticky patches
Hanwen Zhang, Timothy Davis, Richard F. Katz +2
Basal crevasses are macroscopic structural discontinuities at the base of ice sheets and glaciers. Motivated by observations and the mechanics of elastic fracture, we hypothesise t…
The role of grain-environment heterogeneity in normal grain growth: a stochastic approach
Thomas Breithaupt, Lars N. Hansen, Srikanth Toppaladoddi +1
The size distribution of grains is a fundamental characteristic of polycrystalline solids. In the absence of deformation, the grain-size distribution is controlled by normal grain…
Compositional layering in Io driven by magmatic segregation and volcanism
Dan C. Spencer, Richard F. Katz, Ian J. Hewitt +2
Magmatic segregation and volcanic eruptions transport tidal heat from Io's interior to its surface. Several observed eruptions appear to be extremely high temperature ( 1600…
