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...
Frictional and microanalytical data of basalts sheared with pressurized H2O- and CO2- rich fluids
Giacomel, Piercarlo | Spagnuolo, Elena | Nazzari, Manuela | Marzoli, Andrea | Passelegue, François | Youbi, Nasrrddine | Di Toro, Giulio
2018
Here we report the raw data of the friction experiments performed on basalt-built faults pressurized with de-ionized H2O, pure CO2, pure Ar, and H2O+CO2 mixtures, respectively (Dataset_friction_basalts.zip). The experiments were designed to assess the effects of the fluid chemistry on fault...
Creep data of (Dotternhausen) Posidonia shale
Rybacki, Erik | Herrmann, Johannes | Wirth, Richard | Dresen, Georg
2018
Experimentally determined data to examine the creep behavior of an immature carbonate-rich Posidonia shale (Dottenhausen), subjected to constant stress conditions at temperatures between 50 and 200 °C and confining pressures of 50–200 MPa, simulating elevated in-situ depth conditions. The...
Supplementary material for analogue experiments on the interactions of two indenters, and their implications for curved fold-and-thrust-belts
Reiter, Karsten | Kukowski, Nina | Ratschbacher, Lothar | Rosenau, Matthias
2016
This data publication includes animations and figures of eight scaled analogue models that are used to investigate the evolution of a curved mountain belt akin to the Pamir and Hindu Kush orogenic system and adjacent Tadjik basin. Crustal deformation is simulated by means of indentation of...
GeoMod2008 materials benchmark: The ring shear test dataset
Klinkmüller, Matthias | Schreurs, Guido | Rosenau, Matthias
2016
This dataset provides friction data from ring shear test (RST) on natural and artificial granular materials used for experimental simulation by the analogue geodynamic modelling community (21 sands and glass beads). The material samples have been collected community-wide and analysed at GFZ...
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) of...
GeoMod2008 materials benchmark: The axial test dataset
Klinkmüller, Matthias | Schreurs, Guido | Rosenau, Matthias
2016
This dataset provides compaction data from axial testing on natural and artificial granular materials used for experimental simulation by the analogue geodynamic modelling community (21 sands and glass beads). The material samples have been collected community-wide and analysed at GFZ Potsdam...
GeoMod2008 materials benchmark: The SEM image dataset
Klinkmüller, Matthias | Kemnitz, Helga | Schreurs, Guido | Rosenau, Matthias
2016
This dataset provides images from scanning electron microscope (SEM) photography of natural and artificial granular materials used for experimental simulation by the analogue geodynamic modelling community (21 sands and glass beads). The material samples have been collected community-wide and...
Supplement to "Analogue earthquakes and seismic cycles: Experimental modelling across timescales"
Rosenau, Matthias | Corbi, Fabio | Dominguez, Stephane | Rudolf, Michael | Ritter, Malte | Pipping, Elias
2016
This data set contains various data derived from rock and rock analogue testing and analogue models which are presented in Rosenau et al. (2016) to which these data are supplement to..A first group of data contains animations of complementary analogue and numerical models of subduction zone...
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...
