Compaction creep data uniaxial compaction of quartz sand in various chemical environments

Schimmel, Mariska | Hangx, Suzanne | Spiers, Chris

2019

We studied the effect of pore fluid chemistry on compaction creep in quartz sand aggregates, as an analogue for clean, highly porous, quartz-rich reservoir sands and sandstone. Creep is specifically addressed, because it is not yet well understood and can potentially cause reservoir...

What controls sill formation: an overview from analogue models

Sili, Giulia | Urbani, Stefano | Acocella, Valerio

2019

This data publication includes movies and figures of twenty-six analogue models which are used to investigate what controls sill emplacement, defining a hierarchy among a selection of the proposed factors: compressive stresses, interface strength between layers, rigidity contrast between...

Data supplement to: A high-resolution geomagnetic relative paleointensity record from the Arctic Ocean deep water gateway deposits during the last 60 ky

Caricchi, Chiara | Lucchi, Renata Giulia | Sagnotti, Leonardo | Macrì, Patrizia | Di Roberto, Alessio | Del Carlo, Paola | Husum, Katrine | Laberg, Ian Sverre | Morigi, Caterina

2019

This data publication includes the paleomagnetic and rock magnetic dataset from two Calypso giant piston cores collected at the crest of the Bellsund (GS191-01PC) and Isfjorden (GS191-02PC) sediment drifts during the Eurofleets-2 PREPARED cruise, on board the R/V G.O. Sars (Lucchi et al.,...

Mechanical and microstructural data used in: “Inelastic deformation of the Slochteren sandstone: Stress-strain relations and implications for induced seismicity in the Groningen gas field"

Pijnenburg, Ronald | Verberne, Berend | Hangx, Suzanne | Spiers, Christopher

2019

Pore pressure reduction in sandstone reservoirs generally leads to small elastic plus inelastic strains. These small strains (0.1 – 1.0% in total) may lead to surface subsidence and induced seismicity. In current geomechanical models, the inelastic component is usually neglected, though its...

4D X-Ray CT data and surface view videos of a systematic comparison of experimental set-ups for modelling extensional tectonics

Zwaan, Frank | Schreurs, Guido | Buiter, Susanne J.H.

2019

This data set includes 40 videos (+ 1 image) depicting the surface evolution of 39 experiments on crustal extension, as well as 4D CT imagery (figures and videos) of 6 of these experiments. The experiments examined the influence of the method for driving extension (foam base, rubber base, plate...

Digital image correlation data from analogue modeling experiments addressing controls of tilting rate on thin-skinned deformation at salt-bearing continental margins

Ge, Zhiyuan | Rosenau, Matthias | Warsitzka, Michael | Gawthorpe, Robert

2019

This data set includes the results of digital image correlation (DIC) of two experiments on gravitational tectonics at passive margins performed at the Helmholtz Laboratory for Tectonic Modelling (HelTec) of the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences in Potsdam in the framework of EPOS...

Ring-shear test data of plastic sand, a new rock analogue material used for experimental Earth Science applications at Utrecht University, The Netherlands

Willingshofer, Ernst | Sokoutis, Dimitrios | Kleinhans, Maarten | Beekman, Fred | Schönebeck, Jan-Michael | Warsitzka, Michael | Rosenau, Matthias

2018

This dataset provides friction data from ring-shear test (RST) on a plastic (polyester) sand material that has been used in flume experiments (Marra et al., 2014; Kleinhans et al., 2017) and is now used in the Tectonic Laboratory (TecLab) at Utrecht University (NL) as an analogue for brittle...

Digital Image Correlation data from oblique convergence experiments with wet kaolin

Cooke, Michele | Toenenboehn, Kevin | Hatch, Jennifer

2019

Experiments of oblique convergence at angles of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 degrees from the margin within wet kaolin. One suite of experiments, denoted as ‘precut’, has a vertical surface precut within the clay with an electrified wire. The precut surface lies directly above the basal oblique...

Ring-shear test data of quartz sand used for analogue experiments in the laboratory of the Institute of Geophysics of the Czech Academy of Science, Prague

Warsitzka, Michael | Závada, Prokop | Pohlenz, Andre | Rosenau, Matthias

2019

This dataset provides friction data from ring-shear tests (RST) for a quartz sand used in analogue experiments at the Institute of Geophysics of the Czech Academy of Science (IGCAS) (Kratinová et al., 2006; Zavada et al., 2009; Lehmann et al., 2017; Krýza et al., 2019). It is characterized by...

Seismic properties and mineralogy of core samples from the COSC-1 borehole, Sweden

Kästner, Felix | Wenning, Quinn | Zappone, Alba | Madonna, Claudio | Morales, Luiz F.G. | Pierdominici, Simona | Berndt, Christian | Schleicher, Anja M. | Wilke, Franziska D.H.

2021

Core samples have been taken for complementary laboratory seismic measurements and mineralogical analyses on whole rock core from the COSC-1 borehole, Sweden (UTM 63.3124, 13.5259). These samples were used to provide and characterize the seismic properties (i.e., seismic velocities and...
