Session ID#: 12447

Session Description:
This session is to showcase results of geoscientists and materials scientists who use experiments, theory and observation to study the properties of Earth’s materials. Deformation processes occur at various time scales, from seismogeneic fault slip to mantle convection. The nature of macroscopic properties and the forms of constitutive laws that operate at the plate scale depend upon physical and chemical processes that operate at scales down to atomic dimensions. The PPEM session welcome studies that discuss the nature and controls on rock strength, fracture, friction and ductile flow during both engineered and natural tectonic loading and at various time and spatial scales.
