Ring-shear test data of corundum sand “NKF120” used for analogue modelling in the experimental tectonics laboratory at GFZ Potsdam

Rosenau, Matthias | Pohlenz, Andre

2023

This dataset provides friction data from ring-shear tests on corundum sand “NKF120” used in analogue modelling of tectonic processes as a rock analogue for “strong” or “high density” layers in the earth’s upper crust (e.g. Klinkmüller et al., 2016) or as an additive to PDMS silicone oil to...

Ring-shear test data of garnet sand used for analogue modelling in the experimental tectonics laboratory at GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences, Potsdam

Rosenau, Matthias | Pohlenz, Andre

2023

This dataset provides friction data from ring-shear tests on garnet sand used in analogue modelling of tectonic processes as a rock analogue for “strong” or “high density” layers in the earth’s upper crust (e.g. Klinkmüller et al., 2016). According to our analysis the material shows a...

Rheometric Analysis of Viscous Material Mixtures Used in the Tectonic Laboratory (TecLab) at Utrecht University, Netherlands

Rudolf, Michael | Willingshofer, Ernst | Rosenau, Matthias

2023

This dataset contains measurements of viscous and viscoelastic materials that are used for analogue modelling. Proper density and viscosity scaling of ductile layers in the crust and lithosphere, requires materials like Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), to be mixed with fillers and low viscoity...

Time-lapse imagery, digital image correlation (DIC) and topographic analysis of laboratory experiments simulating the evolution of the East African Rift System

Zwaan, Frank | Schreurs, Guido

2023

This data set includes overviews and videos depicting the surface evolution (time-lapse photographs, topography data and digital image correlation [DIC] analysis) of 6 analogue models simulating rotational rift tectonics. In these experiments we examined the links between rotational rifting and...

Experimental insights on experimental volcanic lightning under varying atmospheric conditions

Springsklee, Christina | Scheu, Bettina | Seifert, Christoph | Manga, Michael | Cimarelli, Corrado | Gaudin, Damian | Trapp, Oliver | Dingwell, Donald B.

2023

This data publication provides data from 39 experiments performed in 2021 to 2022 in the Gas-mixing lab at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (Germany). The experiments were conducted to investigate the charging and discharging potential of decompressed soda-lime glass beads in...

A database of enhanced-gravity analogue models examining the influence of pre-existing fabrics on the evolution of oblique rift

Zou, Yaoyao | Maestrelli, Daniele | Corti, Giacomo | Del Ventisette, Chiara | Wang, Liang | Shen, Chuanbo

2023

This dataset shows the original data of a series of enhanced-gravity (centrifuge) analogue models, which were performed to test the influence of the pre-existing fabrics in the brittle upper crust on the evolution of structures resulting from oblique rifting. The obliquity of the rift (i.e.,...

A database of analogue models testing the interaction between magmatic intrusion-related doming and caldera collapse

Maestrelli, Daniele | Sani, Federico | Bonini, Marco | Montanari, Domenico | Del Ventisette, Chiara | Corti, Giacomo | Renzetti Pagnotta, Diego

2024

This dataset presents the raw data from one experimental series (named CCEX, i.e., Caldera Collapse under regional Extension) of analogue models performed to investigate the process of caldera collapse followed by regional extension. Our experimental series tested the case of perfectly circular...

Digital Image Correlation data from experiments of releasing bend evolution within different strength wet kaolin

Gabriel, Alana | Elston, Hanna | Cooke, Michele | Ramos Sanchez, Christ

2025

The data set includes the Digital Image Correlation (DIC) results for four experiments of releasing bends along dextral strike-slip faults that were performed at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst (USA). Gabriel et al. (2025) used the DIC data sets to investigate how releasing bend...

Stable Nitrogen isotope composition of common wheat in intercropping with Persian clover (Tuscany, Italy)

Baneschi, Ilaria | Furlanetto, Nicola | Boschi, Chiara | Pellegrini, Ferdinando | Antichi, Daniele | Barberi, Paolo

2024

Intercropping is the simultaneous growth of two or more crops in the same space for a significant part of their life cycle (Willey, 1979). In this context, samples from one farm experiments in the growing season 2015/2016 and 2016/2017, embedded in the cropping systems of one arable farm in the...

2024

This dataset provides friction data from ring-shear tests white mica (Muscovite) used for analogue modelling in the Tectonic Laboratory (TecLab) at Utrecht University. According to our analysis the materials show a Mohr-Coulomb behaviour characterized by a linear failure envelope. Peak,...
