Experimental data on scaled analogue experiments modelling GPS velocity field variations and kinematic partitioning in the Southern Andes (34°S to 42°S)

Eisermann, Jan Oliver | Göllner, Paul Leon | Riller, Ulrich

2021

The southern Andes are regarded as a typical subduction orogen formed by oblique plate convergence. Despite decades of studies, there is considerable uncertainty as to how deformation is kinematically partitioned in the upper plate. Using scaled analogue experiments modelling, we test the...

Ring-shear test data of quartz sand – silicate cenospheres mixtures used for analogue experiments at the Institute of Geophysics of the Czech Academy of Science, Prague

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

2021

This dataset provides friction data from ring-shear tests (RST) for mixtures of quartz sand and sili-cate cenospheres, which are used for analog experiments in the laboratory of the Institute of Geo-physics of the Czech Academy of Science (IG CAS) (Warsitzka et al., 2021). The mixtures have...

Stress strain data of experimentally deformed Carrara marble in the semi-brittle field

2021

The data set contains stress-strain data of Carrara marble experimentally deformed in triaxial compression at temperatures of 20 – 800°C, confining pressures of 30 – 300 MPa, and strain rates between 10-3 and 10-6 s-1. This range covers conditions, at witch marble deforms in the semi-brittle...

Digital image correlation data from analogue modelling experiments addressing the influence of basin geometry on gravity-driven salt tectonics at the Tectonic Modelling Lab of the University of Rennes (F)

Zwaan, Frank | Rosenau, Matthias | Maestrelli, Daniele

2021

This data set includes the results of digital image correlation of 35 brittle-viscous experiments on gravitational salt tectonics performed at the Tectonic Modelling Lab of the University of Rennes 1 (UR1). The experiments demonstrate the influence of basin geometry on gravity-driven salt...

Digital Image Correlation of strike slip experiments in wet kaolin at different strain rates and boundary conditions

Cooke, Michele | Elston, Hanna | Chaipornkaew, Laainam

2021

The data set includes the digital image correlation of 16 dextral strike-slip experiments performed at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst (USA). The DIC data sets were used for a machine learning project to build a CNN that can predict off-fault deformation from active fault trace maps....

Particle image velocimetry data from an analog seismo-tectonic model addressing the interaction between neighbor asperities

Corbi, Fabio | Bedford, Jonathan | Poli, Piero | Funiciello, Francesca | Deng, Zhiguo

2021

This dataset includes the results of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) of one experiment on subduction megathrust earthquakes (with interacting asperities) performed at the Laboratory of Experimental Tectonics (LET) Univ. Roma Tre in the framework of AspSync, the Marie Curie project (grant...

RST-Stick-Slipy

Rudolf, Michael

2021

RST-Stick-Slipy is a software that analyzes the stick-slip characteristics of granular material tested with the ring shear tester RST.pc01 at the Helmholtz Tectonic Laboratory for Tectonic Modelling (HelTec). This software uses the time series created by the machine to automatically detect slip...

Pictures, DEMs, and raw data relative to analogue accretionary wedges

Reitano, Riccardo | Faccenna, Claudio | Funiciello, Francesca | Corbi, Fabio | Sternai, Pietro | Willett, Sean D. | Sembroni, Andrea | Lanari, Riccardo

2021

This dataset includes raw data used in the paper by Reitano et al. (2022), focused on the effect of boundary conditions on the evolution of analogue accretionary wedges affected by both tectonics and surface processes; the paper also focuses on the balance between tectonics and surface...

PIV and topographic analysis data from analogue experiments involving 3D structural inheritance and multiphase rifting

Zwaan, Frank | Chenin, Pauline | Erratt, Duncan | Manatschal, Gianreto | Schreurs, Guido

2021

This data set includes videos depicting the surface evolution (time-lapse photographs and Particle Image Velocimetry or PIV analysis) of 38 analogue models, in five model series (A-E), simulating rift tectonics. In these experiments we examined the influence of differently oriented mantle and...

Digital Image Correlation of evolving restraining bend experiments in wet kaolin

Elston, Hanna M. | Cooke, Michele

2022

We document the evolution of two 15° strike-slip restraining bends within wet kaolin. Computer-controlled stepper motors displace one half of the split-box apparatus at a constant rate of 0.5 mm/min to induce dextral faulting in a 2.5 cm thick layer of wet kaolin. The basal plate...
