Transient creep may play an important role in short‐term (small strain) time‐dependent
deformation such as the post‐glacial rebound and the post‐seismic deformation. Among …

Observations of large-scale seismic anisotropy can be used as a marker for past and current
deformation in the Earth's mantle. Nonetheless, global features such as the decrease of the …

In order to achieve rapid heading of deep arch coal roadways under goaf, the maximum
unsupported roof distance (URD), surrounding rock stability of unsupported roof area and …

This study investigates the effect of pressure on diffusion creep of dry San Carlos and
synthetic (prepared by sol-gel method) olivine. We prepared dry (water content< 9 ppm wt) …

To study the occurrence process, as well as the temporal and spatial evolution laws, of
rockburst disasters, the roof deformation of continuous heading roadways during rockburst …

We report the results of an experimental study to determine the influence of pressure on
diffusion creep in wet olivine. In order to observe diffusion creep at high-pressure conditions …

Garnet is an important mineral phase in the upper mantle as it is both a key component in
bulk mantle rocks, and a primary phase at high pressure within subducted basalt. Here, we …

Phase transformations are widely invoked as a source of rheological weakening during
subduction, continental collision, mantle convection, and various other geodynamic …

Understanding mechanical properties and their microscopic origins is fundamental for
multiple fields in condensed matter research. They are controlled by defects, dislocations …

The rheological behavior of the solid Earth fundamentally controls a wide variety of
geodynamic processes. The elastic and anelastic behavior of rocks controls the velocities …
