1. Compare Stearns'Type 1 fracture pattern to the okl and the hko joints from the cla notes and from the text. Draw a diagram and discuss the nature and occurrence of the fracture(s)
Page 1 Structural Geology- Introduction Introduction Structural geology is the study of deformed rocks, and rock deformation. In structural geology, we are faced with a series of natural features that we try to interpret and explain. Each of these features formed through the interplay of external forces on rock
September 1, 2000 1. The following map shows the principal azimuths for fractures measured on the Brokenback feature in Wyoming. Interpret the fracture pattern using your knowledge of joints and joint systems Prepare a written (1 paragraph)analysis
We will now approach the function A(a) from an entirely different point of view, i.e.,we will interpret the S-fabric in terms of strain1. (1.) We assume that the initial fabric is defined by a random orientation of surface, i.e.,that the ODF of the surface is uniform;
