Weight, size, porosity characterization of pumices from Minoan Eruption in Santorini (Greece)

Pisello, Alessandro | Kueppers, Ulrich

2021

The dataset shows the characterization of a set of clasts from Santorini Island: pumices collected from two deposits: Minoan A and Minoan B (Druitt et al. 1999), two levels of the product emplaced by Minoan eruption of Santorini caldera, ca. 1650 B.C. Pumices were weighted, and then...

Contribution of acoustic emissions for the study of fracture in rocks

Neves, João | Costa e Silva, Matilde | Falcão Neves, Paula | Paneiro, Gustavo

2016

Acoustic emissions (AE) are a tool commonly used in a wide variety of building materials for the quantification of structural damage. Given the potential of the application of acoustic emission techniques, a case study of limestones is presented in order to study the location of acoustic...

Criteria for Geotechnical Characterization of Rock Masses for Underground Works

Costa e Silva, Matilde | Falcão Neves, Paula | Caranhola Pereira, Hugo | Reis e Sousa, Manuel

2001

This work points out the main criteria for geotechnical characterization in rock masses, is described the steps of each fases of characterization and is enfasized the importance of choosing the correct group of parameters to established a suitable geotechnical classification system and help...

Correlation between volumetric strain and porosity in saturated limestones

Almeida, André | Costa e Silva, Matilde

2018

Porosity and permeability are two of the most important parameters regarding the knowledge about how rock masses are affected in terms of their geology and physical and mechanical behavior, whether in Mining or Petroleum Engineer. This matter is quite debated in both theoretical and practical...

Simulating the in situ physical properties of the upper Muschelkalk aquifer

Shih, Pei-Ju Rita | Almqvist, Bjarne | Zappone, Alba

2018

The Swiss Molasse Basin (SMB) and the adjacent Folded Jura contain the most suitable deep aquifers for storage in Switzerland (Chevalier et al., 2010). Due to the unsuccessful petroleum exploration in the SMB and Jura, the basin has not been industrially developed and knowledge of the...

Datasets of analog modeling results for the V-shaped opening of the South China Sea: 3D DEMs and PIV results

Yang, Gengxiong | Rosenau, Matthias | Yin, Hongwei | Pan, Shuxin | Yangwen, Pei

2025

This dataset compiles quantitative outputs from eight sandbox experiments conducted under different boundary conditions (differential extension, strong blocks, and a weak zone). It contains 3-D scanning–derived digital elevation models (DEMs) from the final stage of experiments simulating the...

Database of in situ Raman spectra from Ca- and Mg-ATP solutions at 80 °C, 100 °C and 120 °C for determination of the rate constant of the ATP hydrolysis

Moeller, Christoph | Testemale, Denis | Schmidt, Christian | Kokh, Maria A. | Guyot, François | Wilke , Max

2025

In biochemical systems, enzymes facilitate the endergonic reaction of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) to adenosine triphosphate (ATP) via pathways such as oxidative phosphorylation by mem-brane-bound ATP synthase or substrate-level phosphorylation. The energy stored in ATP is re-leased through...

Rheology of PDMS-plasticine mixtures from the Tectonic Modelling Laboratory at CNR-IGG and the University of Florence (Italy)

Maestrelli, Daniele | Maestrelli, Daniele | Corti, Giacomo | Rosenau, Matthias

2025

This dataset provides rheometric data of three PDMS-plasticine mixtures used for centrifuge experiments at the Tectonic Modelling Laboratory of CNR-IGG at the Department of Earth Sciences of the University of Florence (Italy). The test became necessary as older plasticines used in...

A database of analogue models documenting fault reactivation during multiphase extension.

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

2024

In this dataset we provide top-view photos and perspective photos (to create topographic data, i.e. Digital Elevation Models, DEMs) documenting analogue model deformation. For more details on modelling setup, experimental series Wang et al. (2021), to which this dataset is supplementary...

Data for Microstructural and Micromechanical Evolution of Olivine Aggregates During Transient Creep

Wiesman, Harison S. | Breithaupt, Thomas | Wallis, David | Hansen, Lars N.

2024

This dataset is supplemental to the paper Wiesman et al. (In prep) and contains data on the density of dislocations and their stress fields in olivine from laboratory experiments to examine transient creep in olivine. The data were used to characterize the microstructural evolution that...
