Materials Science for Structural Geology
This book sets out the basic materials science needed for understanding the plastic deformation of rocks and minerals.� Although at atmospheric pressure or at relatively low environmental pressures, these materials tend to be brittle, that is, to fracture with little prior plastic deformation when n...
