Strain partitioning into dry and wet zones and the formation of Ca-rich myrmekite in syntectonic syenites: A case for melt-assisted dissolution-replacement creep under granulite facies conditions     

《Journal of Structural Geology》2016

The formation of Ca-rich myrmekites is described in syntectonic syenites crystallized and progressively deformed under granulite facies conditions. The syenites are found in high- and low-strain zones where microstructure and mineral composition are compared. Heterogeneously distributed water-rich, late-magmatic liquids were responsible for strain partitioning into dry and wet high-strain zones at outcrop scale, where contrasting deformation mechanisms are reported. In dry high-strain zones K-feldspar and clinopyroxene are recrystallized under high-T conditions. In wet high-strain zones, the de-stabilization of clinopyroxene and pervasive replacement of relatively undeformed K-feldspar porphyroclasts by myrmekite and subordinate micrographic intergrowths indicate dissolution-replacement creep as the main deformation mechanism. The reworking of these intergrowths is observed and is considered to contribute significantly to the development of the mylonitic foliation and banding. A model is proposed for strain partitioning relating a positive feedback between myrmekite-forming reaction, continuous inflow of late-magmatic liquids and dissolution-replacement creep in the wet zone at the expenses of original mineralogy preserved in the dry zones. Melt-assisted dissolution-replacement creep in syntectonic environments under granulite-facies conditions may extend the field of operation of dissolution-replacement creep, changing significantly the rheology of the lower continental crust.  相似文献   

均匀离散分布的平面应变过程和Fry法应变测量     

杨新岳 《大地构造与成矿学》1993,17(1):82-92

本文运用 Apple Macitonsh 计算机对无应变的均匀离散点分布进行系列平面应变模拟,应变叠加模式分别采用具普遍意义的成岩压实+顺层缩短(LPS)+压溶作用和成岩压实+简单剪切+压溶作用。对各应变阶段的变形点分布进行相应的 Fry 法应变测量,并配合低变形砂岩样品的 Fry 法应变分析实例.证实 Fry 法应变测量方法为一非常有用的应变测量方法,其结果不仅能较好地揭示全岩总应变特征,而且能揭示出许多应变叠加的信息,Fry 法揭示的全岩有限应变椭球主面的方位也较为真实可靠。而 Fry 法运用于应变分布不均匀的劈理化岩石中时,能揭示不同变形域的应变特征,从而达到应变分解的目的。  相似文献   

地震过程中形变能的演化特征     

张永志 《地震研究》1994,17(2):171-176

本文利用非线性理论分析了震前形变能随时间的演化关系，导出了应力与应变的本构关系为非线性时的突变演化模型。最后利用青海门源６．４级地震前后的跨断层形变资料，计算了非线性形变的演化过程。取得如下认识：１．震前形变能的演化过程是不稳定过程；２．形变能的突变发生在非平衡区；３．门源地震前后的跨断层地形变资料的计算结果与理论分析基本一致。  相似文献

粘滑失稳及其物理场时空分布的实验研究   总被引：6，自引：3，他引：6  

邓志辉  马胜利 《地震地质》1995,17(4):305-310

摩擦滑动的物理场实验研究表明：（１）能量空间分布的差异是失稳的重要条件，单发型大事件常发生于高能量向低能量的突变带或高能量背景区内的相对低能量区；（２）单发型大事件的孕育过程常常经历若干个能量输入输出循环，产生多个前兆阶段，并在失稳前源区常有一个弱化过程。小震或群发型事件失稳前常常只有一个能量积累与强化的过程，失稳前兆阶段性反映较差；（３）粘滑失稳时断层的位错与声发射的大小未见明显关系  相似文献

在外力作用下，一定的构造形式周围会产生特定的应变图象。其形态特征在失稳过程中会发生变化。研究应变图象的特征及其变化有助于鉴别失稳前兆，预测变形发展趋势。受构造形式控制，应变场在空间分布上可以划分为若干区域。在变形与失稳过程中，各个区域既有不同的变形行为，也相互影响、相互制约，构成一个紧密联系的动态体系。因此，应当全面观测应变场图象的时间与空间动态演化过程，从中获取失稳前兆，分析失稳机制  相似文献

Seismic risk of circum-pacific earthquakes I. Strain energy release   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Kostas C. Makropoulos  Paul W. Burton 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》1983,121(2):247-267

Commonly used earthquake “whole process” frequency - magnitude and strain energy - magnitude laws are merged to obtain an analytic expression for an upper bound magnitude to regional earthquake occurrenceM ₃, which is expressed primarily in terms of the annual maximum magnitudeM ₁ and the magnitude equivalent of the annual average total strain energy releaseM ₂. Values ofM ₃ are also estimated graphically from cumulative strain energy release diagrams. Both methods are illustrated by application to the high seismicity of the circum-Pacific belt, using Duda’s (1965) data and regionalisation. Values ofM ₃ obtained analytically, with their uncertainties, are in agreement with those obtained graphically. Empirical relations are then obtained betweenM ₁,M ₂, andM ₃, which could be of general assistance in regional seismic risk considerations if they are found to be of a universal nature. For instance.M ₃ andM ₂ differ by one magnitude unit in subregions of the circum-Pacific.  相似文献

Strain and competence contrast estimation from fold shape     

Stefan M. Schmalholz  Yuri Yu. Podladchikov 《Tectonophysics》2001,340(3-4):195-213

A new method to estimate strain and competence contrast from natural fold shapes is developed and verified by analogue and numerical experiments. Strain is estimated relative to the nucleation amplitude, A_N, which is the fold amplitude when the amplification velocities caused by kinematic layer thickening and dynamic folding are identical. A_N is defined as the initial amplitude corresponding to zero strain because folding at amplitudes smaller than A_N is dominantly by kinematic layer thickening. For amplitudes larger than A_N, estimates of strain and competence contrast are contoured in thickness-to-wavelength (H/λ) and amplitude-to-wavelength (A/λ) space. These quantities can be measured for any observed fold shape. Contour maps are constructed using existing linear theories of folding, a new nonlinear theory of folding and numerical simulations, all for single-layer folding. The method represents a significant improvement to the arc length method. The strain estimation method is applied to folds in viscous (Newtonian), power-law (non-Newtonian) and viscoelastic layers. Also, strain partitioning in fold trains is investigated. Strain partitioning refers to the difference in strain accommodated by individual folds in the fold train and by the whole fold train. Fold trains within layers exhibiting viscous and viscoelastic rheology show different characteristic strain partitioning patterns. Strain partitioning patterns of natural fold trains can be used to assess the rheological behaviour during fold initiation.  相似文献
