Supplement to: Sandbox Rheometry: Co-Evolution of Stress and Strain in Riedel- and Critical Wedge-Experiments

Ritter, Malte Christian | Santimano, Tasca | Rosenau, Matthias | Leever, Karen | Oncken, Onno

2017

This dataset is supplementary to the article of Ritter et al. (2017). In this article, a new experimental device is presented that facilitates precise measurements of boundary forces and surface deformation at high temporal and spatial resolution. This supplementary dataset contains the...

Hydrothermal Friction data of gouges derived from the Alpine Fault

Niemeijer, Andre

2017

The Alpine Fault, New Zealand, is a major plate-bounding fault that accommodates 65–75% of the total relative motion between the Australian and Pacific plates. Here we present data on the hydrothermal frictional properties of Alpine Fault rocks that surround the principal slip zones (PSZ)...

Rheometric measurements of salted type A gelatins

Brizzi, Silvia | Funiciello, Francesca | Corbi, Fabio | Di Giuseppe, Erika | Mojoli, Giorgio

2017

Gelatin is a versatile material commonly used in analogue modelling because of its complex rheology, which allows simulating a wide range of tectonic processes requiring either elastic (e.g., dyke intrusions models) and viscoelastic behavior (e.g., analog earthquakes models). Salt (NaCl) is...

Laboratory model data from experiments on fragmenting analogue rock avalanches

Haug, Øystein Thorden | Rosenau, Matthias | Rudolf, Michael | Leever, Karen | Oncken, Onno

2021

This data set includes various laboratory model data derived from analogue rock avalanche experiments on the role of fragmentation on runout behavior. Detailed descriptions of the experiments and monitoring and analysis techniques can be found in Haug et al. (submitted) to which this data set...

Supplement to "Work optimization predicts accretionary faulting: An integration of physical and numerical experiments"

Souloumiac, Pauline | Maillot, Bertrand | Herbert, Justin W. | McBeck, Jessica A. | Cooke, Michele L.

2017

The data set includes photos, force measurements, and incremental displacement fields captured in experiment E240 run at the physical modeling laboratory (GEC) at the Université de Cergy-Pontoise. We built the accretionary wedge using a novel sedimentation device [Maillot, 2013] that...

Supplement to: Growing Faults in the Lab: Insights into the Scale Dependence of the Fault Zone Evolution Process

Ritter, Malte C. | Rosenau, Matthias | Oncken, Onno

2017

This dataset is supplementary material to the article of Ritter et al. (2017). In this article, the similarity of fault propagation work in analogue sandbox experiments to natural fault networks is investigated through measurements in a strike-slip sandbox and in a ring-shear-tester. The...

Supplementary material for analogue experiments on the impact of the lithosphere on dynamic topography

Sembroni, Andrea | Kiraly, Agnes | Faccenna, Claudio | Funiciello, Francesca | Becker, Thorsten W. | Globig, Jan | Fernandez, Manuel

2017

We present videos and figures from 22 scaled analogue models used to investigate the interactions between a density anomaly rising in the mantle and the lithosphere in a Newtonian system. The experimental setup consists of a two layers viscous lithosphere-upper mantle system obtained by...

Mechanical data and microstructures of simulated calcite fault gouge sheared at 550°C

Verberne, Berend Antonie | Chen, Jianye | Pennock, Gillian

2017

The largest magnitude earthquakes nucleate at depths near the base of the seismogenic zone, near the transition from velocity weakening frictional slip to velocity strengthening ductile flow. However, the mechanisms controlling this transition, and relevant to earthquake nucleation, remain...

Particle size distribution analyses of volcanic ash from Campi Flegrei (Italy) and Sakurajima (Japan) volcanoes

Del Bello, Elisabetta | Taddeucci, Jacopo | Scarlato, Piergiorgio | Giacalone, Emanuele

2017

This data publication includes particle size distribution data of natural volcanic ash samples used as starting material for laboratory experiments simulating the aggregation/disaggregation of colliding volcanic ash particles. Full details of the experimental method can be found in Del Bello...

Friction data of simulated fault gouges derived from the Groningen gas field

Hunfeld, Luuk | Niemeijer, André | Spiers, Christopher

2017

We investigated the frictional properties of simulated fault gouges derived from the main lithologies present in the seismogenic Groningen gas field (NE Netherlands), employing in-situ P-T conditions and varying pore fluid salinity. Direct shear experiments were performed on gouges prepared...
