Creep strength of oriented orthopyroxene single crystals was investigated via shear deformation experiments under lithospheric
conditions [P (pressure) = 1.3 GPa and T (temperature) = 973–1,373 K]. For the A-orientation (shear direction [001] on (100) plane), the samples have transformed
completely to clinoenstatite and much of the deformation occurred after transformation. In contrast, for the B-orientation
(shear direction [001] on (010) plane), samples remained orthoenstatite and deformation occurred through dislocation motion
in orthoenstatite. The strength of orthopyroxene with these orientations is smaller than for olivine aggregates under all
experimental conditions. Flow of the B-orientation samples is described by a power-law, and the pre-exponential constant,
the apparent activation energy, and the stress exponent are determined to be A = 10−9.5 s−1·MPa−4.2, Q = 114 kJ/mol and n = 4.2. However, for the A-orientation, the results cannot be fit by a single flow law and we obtained the following: A = 108.9 s−1·MPa−3.0, Q = 459 kJ/mol and n = 3.0 at high temperatures (≥1,173 K), and A = 10−27.4 s−1·MPa−14.3, Q = 296 kJ/mol and n = 14.3 at low temperatures (<1,173 K). The stress exponent for the low-temperature regime is high, suggesting that deformation
involves some processes where the activation energy decreases with stress such as the Peierls mechanism. Our study shows that
orthopyroxene with these orientations is significantly weaker than olivine under the lithospheric conditions suggesting that
orthopyroxene may reduce the strength of the lithosphere, although the extent to which orthopyroxene weakens the lithosphere
depends on its orientation and connectivity. 相似文献

Dislocations in olivine decorated by oxidation in air were observed with a scanning electron microscope (SEM) using a backscattered electron image (BEI). The decorated dislocations (and grain boundaries) were found to give clear bright images in this mode, indicating an increase of mean atomic number near the dislocation cores (and grain boundaries). This method of dislocation observation has a resolution of ca. 0.1 μm, about an order of magnitude better than optical microscopic observation, and is particularly useful in the study of the overall dislocation distribution of naturally and experimentally deformed olivines with relatively high dislocation densities. 相似文献

High-temperature and high-pressure recovery experiments were made on experimentally deformed olivines at temperatures of 1613–1788 K and pressures of 0.1 MPa to 2.0 GPa. In the high-pressure experiments, a piston cylinder apparatus was used with BN and NaCl powder as the pressure medium, and the hydrostatic condition of the pressure was checked by test runs with low dislocation density samples. No dislocation multiplication was observed. The kinetics of the dislocation annihilation process were examined by different initial dislocation density runs and shown to be of second order, i.e. where ρ is the dislocation density, k0 is a constant, are the activation energy and volume respectively, and P, R and T are pressure, gas constant and temperature, respectively. Activation energy and volume were estimated from the temperature and pressure dependence of the dislocation annihilation rate as and , respectively.The diffusion constants relevant to the dislocation annihilation process were estimated from a theoretical relation k=αD where is the diffusion constant and α is a non-dimensional constant of ca. 300. The results agree well with the self-diffusion constant of oxygen in olivine. This suggests that the dislocation annihilation is rate-controlled by the (oxygen) diffusion-controlled dislocation climb.The mechanisms of creep in olivine and dry dunite are examined by using the experimental data of static recovery. It is suggested that the creep of dry dunite is rate-controlled by recovery at cell walls or at grain boundaries which is rate-controlled by oxygen diffusion. Creep activation volume is estimated to be 16±3 cm3 mol?1. 相似文献

Temperatures in the lower mantle of the Earth are estimated from the observed Q distribution. A thermal boundary-layer where temperatures rise rapidly is found at the base of the mantle, corresponding to the low Q zone described by Anderson and Hart (1978a,b). The existence of this thermal boundary layer indicates that the lower mantle participates in convection, and also that some of the energy driving the convection is coming from the core. 相似文献

Although the bulk moduli (KT0) of silicate melts have a relatively narrow range of values, the pressure derivatives of the isothermal bulk modulus (KT0′) can assume a broad range of values and have an important influence on the compositional dependence of the melt compressibility at high pressure. Based on the melt density data from sink/float experiments at high pressures in the literature, we calculate KT0′ using an isothermal equation of state (EOS) (e.g., Birch–Murnaghan EOS and Vinet EOS) with the previously determined values of room-pressure density (ρ0) and room-pressure bulk modulus (KT0). The results show that best estimates of KT0′ vary considerably from ~ 3 to ~ 7 for different compositions. KT0′ is nearly independent of Mg # (molar Mg/(Mg + Fe)), but decreases with SiO2 content. Hydrous melts have anomalously small KT0′ leading to a high degree of compression at high pressures. For anhydrous melts, KT0′ is ~ 7 for peridotitic melts, ~ 6 for picritic melts, ~ 5 for komatiitic melts, and ~ 4 for basaltic melts. 相似文献

We report a new observation of the olivine B-type lattice-preferred orientation (LPO), from the garnet peridotite at Cima di Gagnone, Switzerland. The olivine B-type fabric forms at low temperatures and/or high stress in the presence of water, and is of particular interest because it may be used to explain the trench-parallel shear-wave splitting that is often observed at subduction zones. In conjunction with the olivine B-type fabric, we have found strong orthopyroxene LPO that is identical to those formed under water-free conditions. This suggests that water may not have a significant effect on orthopyroxene fabric. From the olivine microstructure, we determine that a stress of 22 ± 8 MPa was applied during the deformation event that formed the olivine LPO. Using an olivine flow-law, and assuming geological strain-rates, we determine the temperature of deformation to be 800 ± 175°C. This does not preclude an ultra-deep origin for the ultramafic rocks at Cima di Gagnone, but indicates that much of the deformation recorded in the microstructure occurred at modest temperatures.Communicated by T.L.
