Small faults formed as deformation bands in sandstone   总被引：13，自引：0，他引：13  

Atilla Aydin 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》1978,116(4-5):913-930

Small faults with displacements of a few millimeters or centimeters are abundant in the Entrada and Navajo Sandstones, in the San Rafael Desert, Utah, where they are important primary structures, preceding the development of large faults with displacements of several meters or tens of meters. The small faults contain no surfaces of discontinuity, rather they occur asdeformation bands about one millimeter and tens or hundreds of meters long, and across which the displacements are distributed. Two zones with different modes of deformation can be distinguished within a deformation band: an outer zone where the matrix, including pores and matrix material, deforms; and an inner zone, about 0.5 mm thick, where the sand grains fracture and further consolidation takes place. Fracturing of the grains is controlled by contact geometry; the grains tend to split into subgrains along lines connecting contact points between the grains. Then the angular subgrains, which are readily fractured, are further granulated and mixed with the matrix. The final product is the deformation band, with much smaller grain size, poorer sorting, and lower porosity than the original parent sandstone. The sandstone on either side of a deformation band is almost undisturbed-fractures are rare there — so that deformation is highly localized within the band. The material within a deformation band apparently strain hardens as a result of the deformation; perhaps this is why the shear displacement across a deformation band is at most a few centimeters.  相似文献   

Seismic hazard studies for Gaziantep city in South Anatolia of Turkey     

Hamza Güllü  Atilla M. Ansal  Aydin Özbay 《Natural Hazards》2008,44(1):19-50

Seismic hazard studies were conducted for Gaziantep city in the South Anatolia of Turkey. For this purpose, a new attenuation relationship was developed using the data of Zaré and Bard and accelerations were predicted employing this new equation. Deterministic approach, total probability theorem and GIS methodology were all together utilized for the seismic assessments. Seismic hazard maps with 0.25° grid intervals considering the site conditions were produced by the GIS technique. The results indicated that the acceleration values by the GIS hazard modelings were matched with the ones from the deterministic approach, however, they were underestimated comparing with the total probability theorem. In addition, the GIS based seismic hazard maps showed that the current seismic map of Turkey fairly yields conservative acceleration values for the Gaziantep region. Therefore, the constructed GIS hazard models are offered as a base map for a further modification of the current seismic hazard map.  相似文献

Assessment of Petrophysical Surface Data of the Har?it Granitoid in Trabzon, in Northeastern Turkey     

Ali Aydin  ?ener Ceryan 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》2012,169(1-2):201-217

The Har?it granitoid in northeastern Turkey, comprises four separate granite units that are apparently unfoliated. The Har?it granitoid was investigated here by using microstructural, petrofabric and anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) data. The structural data of the granitoid were found to be highly compatible with the zonation recognized from AMS measurements. The orientation of magnetic fabrics within the granite units indicates that tectonic deformation might have occurred coevally with the magmatic emplacement of the intrusion. When we evaluated the manners on the scale of the pluton that the disruption took place in the form of uplifting, probably related to a rapid migration of the volcanic front and the documented change from deep sea sedimentation predominant until late Cretaceous to shallower environments during the Paleocene. The possible tectonic control of fault systems on the ascent and emplacement of the granitic magma in the study area, however, cannot be completely ruled out because the Har?it granitoid is situated at or very near the NAF systems in northern Anatolia. In any case, the intrusion is clearly discordant to the regional deformational features formed during the collisional events between the Eurasia and Anatolia plates in northern Turkey.  相似文献   

Chromatographic Separation and Analytic Procedure for Priority Organic Pollutants in Urban Air     

Senar Ozcan  Mehmet Emin Aydin  Ali Tor 《洁净——土壤、空气、水》2008,36(12):969-977

A separation procedure was developed for analysis of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in urban air, while simultaneously eliminating the interfering compounds. This was carried out by optimization of a column chromatograph with regard to the eluent type (n‐hexane and n‐pentane), volume of eluent, type of sorbent material (silica gel and florisil) and activation level of the sorbent material. The determination of the level of PCBs and PAHs was carried out using gas chromatography (GC) equipped with a mass selective detector (MSD), while determination of the OCPs was carried out by GC equipped with an electron capture detector (μ‐ECD). The use of a silica gel column (10 g, 5% deactivated with H₂O) with 70 mL of n‐hexane gave satisfactory separation of PCBs from PAHs and OCPs. After collecting the PCBs with 70 mL of n‐hexane, 3·20 mL of n‐hexane:ethyl acetate, (1:1, v:v) was adequate for elution of the PAHs and OCPs from the column. The primary aim of this study was to develop a multimethod for analyses of PCBs, PAHs, and OCPs in urban air as well as reducing solvent and sorbent consumption and analysis time during the clean‐up procedure compared to the US EPA standard methods (EPA methods TO‐13A for PAHs and TO‐4A for both PCBs and OCPs).  相似文献   

The Effect of Regional Borders when Using the Gutenberg-Richter Model, Case Study: Western Anatolia     

Serap Kahraman  Türkay Baran  İ. Aydin Saatçi  Müjgan Şalk 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》2008,165(2):331-347

A probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) for Western Anatolia is presented using the Gutenberg-Richter (G-R) frequency-magnitude relation. Since the modeling is sensitive to the location of seismotectonics boundaries, to use the information content of the observed earthquake data, as a general rule the borders of the affected area are extended. In this study, the effect of the region’s definition on the G-R model is debated on the Western Anatolian region, which is one of the most seismically active and rapidly deforming regions of the world throughout the ages. Calculations are carried out for two subregions and one combined region as a whole using the seismic catalog from 1900 to 2005. The data sets are determined by the region’s borders with the parameters computed according to these data sets by the least-squares and maximum likelihood methods, and then future predictions are estimated via these parameters. Comparing the results with historical earthquake records, most appropriate regional borders for Western Anatolia are defined, and for this new region G-R model parameters are obtained.  相似文献

A new approach to liquefaction hazard zonation: Application to Laoag City,Northern Philippines     

M.A.A. Beroya  A. Aydin 《Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering》2010

To help mitigate liquefaction hazards in the Philippines, an inexpensive yet effective approach to liquefaction hazard zonation was developed in this study. The proposed approach is also useful in other areas especially where funds for more rigorous procedures may not be available. The approach utilizes the geomorphology-based criteria to identify liquefaction-prone deposits based on geology and grain characteristics, and generate a preliminary liquefaction susceptibility map. Then, microtremor recordings, popularly used in site effect estimation, are gathered to derive qualitative information on the density and thickness of these deposits and generate a site classification map. This latter map is also essentially a ground shaking hazard map in that it shows those areas where thick, soft deposits likely to amplify and prolong the duration of ground motion can be found. Therefore, it also identifies areas where seismic demand can be high that the possibility of liquefaction being triggered is likewise high. Combining the two maps, an integrated liquefaction hazard zonation map is produced which provides not only an improved characterization of the soils’ capacity to resist liquefaction but also integrates qualitative information on the seismic demand on these deposits as well. With information about the relative thickness of the deposits, the severity of potential damage can likewise be inferred from the map since thicker deposits relate to more serious damage. The proposed approach was applied to Laoag City, Northern Philippines, where it was shown to reliably identify areas that are vulnerable to the hazard.  相似文献   

The origin of oriented lakes in the Andean foreland, Parque Nacional Torres del Paine (Chilean Patagonia)     

Joseph Gonzales  Atilla Aydin 《Geomorphology》2008,97(3-4):502-515

The Parque Nacional Torres Del Paine and surrounding area in the Magallanes foreland basin in Chilean Patagonia is the site for numerous lakes fed by glaciers and rivers in the Andean highlands to the west. The lakes are elongate and have conspicuously systematic orientations. We hypothesize that the origin of the oriented lakes lies in the fault system, composed of a right-lateral strike-slip fault set oriented 58° from north, a left-lateral strike-slip set oriented 87°, and a thrust fault set oriented 167°, that exists within the underlying rocks. To test this hypothesis quantitatively, we determined the shape and orientation of the lakes by fitting each lake with an ellipse of appropriate aspect ratio, and later with multiple ellipses consistent with the composite geometry of some lakes. We then examined the faults in the area in terms of their kinematics, orientation and distribution. The distribution of lake orientations showed three distinct groups which appear to correspond to the three main fault groups. For lakes fitted with multiple ellipses, the difference in means between the right-lateral, left-lateral, and thrust faults and their corresponding groups of lakes are 3.05°, 1.57°, and 5.17°. Using a Kolmogorov–Smirnov (K–S) statistical test to compare the orientations of faults with respect to the lakes suggests that there is not a strongly significant difference between the fault orientations and the corresponding lake groups. These results indicate that the faults have a profound control on the orientation, shape, and distribution of the lakes. We attribute this to faults and their damage zones being weaker and therefore prone to a faster rate of erosion, and to stress perturbations associated with discontinuous faults resulting in localized high density fracturing and surface subsidence. These results have implications for lake and drainage system morphologies in other foreland basins along the Andes and other similar settings.  相似文献
