Supplementary material to "Rough subducting seafloor reduces interseismic coupling and mega-earthquake occurrence: insights from analogue models"
van Rijsingen, Elenora | Funiciello, Francesca | Corbi, Fabio | Lallemand, Serge
2019
This dataset contains digital image correlation (DIC) data of eight seismotectonic analogue experiments that were performed at the Laboratory of Experimental Tectonics (LET), Univ. Rome Tre, to investigate the effect of subduction interface roughness on the seismogenic behaviour of the...
4D X-Ray CT data and surface view videos of a systematic comparison of experimental set-ups for modelling extensional tectonics
Zwaan, Frank | Schreurs, Guido | Buiter, Susanne J.H.
2019
This data set includes 40 videos (+ 1 image) depicting the surface evolution of 39 experiments on crustal extension, as well as 4D CT imagery (figures and videos) of 6 of these experiments. The experiments examined the influence of the method for driving extension (foam base, rubber base, plate...
Supplementary material to "Machine Learning can predict the timing and size of analog earthquakes"
Corbi, Fabio | Sandri, Laura | Bedford, Jonathan | Funiciello, Francesca | Brizzi, Silvia | Rosenau, Matthias | Lallemand, Serge
2016
This data set includes the results of digital image correlation of one experiment on subduction megathrust earthquakes with interacting asperities performed at the Laboratory of Experimental Tectonics (LET) Univ. Roma Tre in the framework of AspSync, the Marie Curie project (grant agreement...
Supplement to: Identification of kinematic boundary conditions triggering removal of material in tectonically erosive margins : insight from scaled physical experiments
Albert, Francisca
2018
This data set includes movies and images of sandbox experiments aiming at understainding the process of subduction erosion at active plate margins (Albert, 2013). Four experiments are documented by means of movies showing the evolution of a strong wedge (sand-sugar mix, “Reference...
What controls sill formation: an overview from analogue models
Sili, Giulia | Urbani, Stefano | Acocella, Valerio
2019
This data publication includes movies and figures of twenty-six analogue models which are used to investigate what controls sill emplacement, defining a hierarchy among a selection of the proposed factors: compressive stresses, interface strength between layers, rigidity contrast between...
Compaction creep data uniaxial compaction of quartz sand in various chemical environments
Schimmel, Mariska | Hangx, Suzanne | Spiers, Chris
2019
We studied the effect of pore fluid chemistry on compaction creep in quartz sand aggregates, as an analogue for clean, highly porous, quartz-rich reservoir sands and sandstone. Creep is specifically addressed, because it is not yet well understood and can potentially cause reservoir...
Mechanical and microstructural data used in the article Pijnenburg et al., Deformation behaviour of sandstones from the seismogenic Groningen gas field: Role of inelastic versus elastic mechanisms
Pijnenburg, Ronald | Verberne, Berend | Hangx, Suzanne | Spiers, Christopher
2015
Hydrocarbon or groundwater production from sandstone reservoirs can result in surface subsidence and induced seismicity. Subsidence results from combined elastic and inelastic compaction of the reservoir due to a change in the effective stress state upon fluid extraction. The magnitude of...
Effect of sieving height on density and friction of brittle analogue material: Ring-shear test data of corundum sand used for analogue experiments in the Tectonic Modelling Lab of the University of Bern (CH)
Schmid, Timothy | Schreurs, Guido | Warsitzka, Michael | Rosenau, Matthias
2019
This dataset provides friction data from ring-shear tests (RST) for a corundum sand (“NKF120”). This material is used in various types of analogue experiments in Tectonic Modelling Lab of the University of Bern as an analogue for brittle layers in the crust or lithosphere. The material has been...
Ring-shear test data of feldspar sand from the CNR-IGG Tectonic Modelling Laboratory at the University of Florence (Italy)
Zwaan, Frank | Rudolf, Michael | Pohlenz, Andre | Corti, Giacomo | Keir, Derek | Sani, Federico
2020
This dataset provides internal data from ring-shear tests (RST) on a feldspar sand material that has been used in tectonic experiments by among others Montanari et al. (2017) and Zwaan et al. (2020) in the Tectonic Modelling Laboratory of CNR-IGG at the Earth Sciences Department of the...
Velocity-dependent slip weakening by the combined operation of pressure solution and foliation development
Niemeijer, Andre
2018
Phyllosilicate-bearing faults are characterized by an anastomosing foliation with intervening hard clasts and are believed to be long-term weak structures. Here, I present results of sliding experiments on gouges of 80 wt% quartz and 20 wt% muscovite, sheared under hydrothermal conditions at...
