Ring-shear test data of feldspar sand FS900S used in the Tectonic Modelling Laboratory at the University of Bern (Switzerland)
Zwaan, Frank; Schreurs, Guido; Rudolf, Michael; Rosenau, Matthias; (2022-12)
This dataset provides friction data from ring-shear tests on feldspar sand FS900S used for the simulation of brittle behaviour in crust- and lithosphere-scale analogue... -
Mechanical data of simulated basalt-built faults from rotary shear and direct shear experiments
Giacomel, Piercarlo; Ruggieri, Roberta; Scuderi, Marco Maria; Spagnuolo, Elena; Di Toro, Giulio; Collettini, Cristiano; (2021-04)
Here we report the raw data of the friction experiments carried out on basalt-built simulated faults defined by rock-on-rock contacts and powdered gouge. The experiments were... -
Friction data of simulated fault gouges derived from the Groningen gas field
Hunfeld, Luuk; Niemeijer, André; Spiers, Christopher; (2017-12)
We investigated the frictional properties of simulated fault gouges derived from the main lithologies present in the seismogenic Groningen gas field (NE Netherlands), employing... -
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; et al. (2018-06)
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... -
Velocity-dependent slip weakening by the combined operation of pressure solution and foliation development
Niemeijer, Andre; (2018-03)
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...
