An integrated framework for structural geology : kinematics, dynamics, and rheology of deformed rocks / Steven Wojtal (Oberlin College, Oberlin, OH, US), Tom Blenkinsop (Cardiff University, Cardiff, UK), Basil Tikoff (University of Wisconsin, Wisconsin, US).
By: Wojtal, Steven F [author.]

Language: English Publisher: Hoboken, NJ : Wiley, 2022Description: xix, 580 pages : illustrations; 24 cmContent type: text Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9781405106849Subject(s): Geology, Structural | Rock deformation | Deformations (Mechanics) | MicrostructureDDC classification: 551.8 LOC classification: QE601 | .W65 2022Summary: "From a geologist's perspective, "solid" rock shows a lot of dynamic behavior: It constantly moves, deforms and breaks up in response to natural forces. Structural geology focuses on understanding the processes by which geological materials shift and deform. To do so, structural geologists study rocks in the field as well as in the laboratory, making use of microstructural observations to characterize deformed rocks. Structural Geology is an advanced undergraduate course for geologists that is taught at all major geology schools"-- Provided by publisher.| Item type | Current location | Home library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
