Experimentally determined steady state flow properties and processes of important rock‐
forming materials are reviewed in reference to those of metals and ceramics and to physical …

Shear zones are one of the most conspicuous structures in orogenic and rifting settings,
accommodating high strain, rock displacement and influencing magma emplacement and …

This textbook describes the physics of the plastic deformation of solids at high temperatures.
It is directed at geologists or geophysicists interested in the high-temperature behaviour of …

Dynamic recrystallization is an important process during deformation of many rock forming
minerals, occurring under a wide range of metamorphic conditions. It can strongly influence …

A microstructural analysis has been carried out on mylonites and mylonitic gneisses of the
Eastern Peninsular Ranges Mylonite Zone, which were formed over a range of metamorphic …

Recrystallization is a common microstructural transformation that occurs during deformation,
metamorphism and diagenesis of rocks. Studies on minerals and rock analogues have …

Several examples of deformation‐induced myrmekite have been found in two amphibolite
facies mylonites derived from granitic protoliths, namely a muscovite‐poor S‐C mylonite and …

Deformation and chemical reaction in granitoids at greenschist faciès conditions were
investigated in samples from three shear zones: two from the Alps (Corvatsch Granodiorite …

It has long been recognized that deformation and metamorphism are closely interlinked, but
although many authors have touched upon various aspects of the subject, there has never …

This book is for senior undergraduate or postgraduate students who want an insight into
some modern approaches to metamorphic petrology. Its aims are to explain, in reasonably …
