Magma transport in brittle rock occurs by diking. Understanding the dynamics of diking and
its observable consequences is essential to deciphering magma propagation in volcanic …

The Green's function (GF) method, which makes use of GFs, is an important and elegant tool
for solving a given boundary-value problem for the differential equation from a real …

Magma is transported and stored in the crust mostly through networks of planar structures
(intrusive sheets), ranging from vertical dykes to inclined sheets and horizontal sills, and …

Dike intrusions are often accompanied by localized deflation, interpreted as depressurizing
magma chambers feeding the dike. In some cases the inferred volume decrease is a factor …

Field measurements were made of 1717 mineral-filled veins in the damage zone of an
active dextral strike-slip fault zone in Iceland. Most veins are composed of quartz …

Fluids in the earth's crust are commonly transported by hydrofractures, such as dykes and
mineral veins, many of which become arrested at various crustal depths. Hydrofractures are …

Fractures generated by internal fluid pressure, for example, dykes, mineral veins, many
joints and man-made hydraulic fractures, are referred to as hydrofractures. Together with …

Many theoretical models predict that arrested dykes may generate major grabens at rift-zone
surfaces. Arrested dyke tips in eroded rift zones, however, are normally not associated with …

Laboratory experiments on air-filled fracture propagation in solidified homogeneous and
layered gelatine have been carried out, providing an analogue model for magma-filled dikes …

The capture of vertically rising dikes by faults is examined with a combination of an analytic
solution, numerical simulations and field observations. One of the numerical solutions and …
