Mechanical data and microstructures of simulated calcite fault gouge sheared at 550°C

Verberne, Berend Antonie | Chen, Jianye | Pennock, Gillian

2017

The largest magnitude earthquakes nucleate at depths near the base of the seismogenic zone, near the transition from velocity weakening frictional slip to velocity strengthening ductile flow. However, the mechanisms controlling this transition, and relevant to earthquake nucleation, remain...

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...

Creep data of (Dotternhausen) Posidonia shale

Rybacki, Erik | Herrmann, Johannes | Wirth, Richard | Dresen, Georg

2018

Experimentally determined data to examine the creep behavior of an immature carbonate-rich Posidonia shale (Dottenhausen), subjected to constant stress conditions at temperatures between 50 and 200 °C and confining pressures of 50–200 MPa, simulating elevated in-situ depth conditions. The...

Fluid-Induced Fault Slip Experiments in the Laboratory on Critically Stressed Saw-Cut Sandstone Samples with High Permeability

Wang, Lei | Kwiatek, Grzegorz | Rybacki, Erik | Bonnelye, Audrey | Bohnhoff, Marco | Dresen, Georg

2020

To understand the physical mechanisms governing fluid-induced seismicity at field-scale fluid injection projects, we conducted fluid-induced fault slip experiments in the laboratory on critically stressed saw-cut sandstone samples with high permeability using different fluid pressurization...

Frictional and microanalytical data of basalts sheared with pressurized H2O- and CO2- rich fluids

Giacomel, Piercarlo | Spagnuolo, Elena | Nazzari, Manuela | Marzoli, Andrea | Passelegue, François | Youbi, Nasrrddine | Di Toro, Giulio

2018

Here we report the raw data of the friction experiments performed on basalt-built faults pressurized with de-ionized H2O, pure CO2, pure Ar, and H2O+CO2 mixtures, respectively (Dataset_friction_basalts.zip). The experiments were designed to assess the effects of the fluid chemistry on fault...

Supplementary material to: A refined age calibrated paleosecular variation and relative paleointensity stack for the NW Barents Sea: implication for geomagnetic field behavior during the Holocene.

Caricchi, Chiara | Sagnotti, Leonardo | Campuzano, Saioa A. | Lucchi, Renata Giulia | Macrì, Patrizia | Rebesco, Michele | Camerlenghi, Angelo

2020

This dataset includes paleomagnetic and rock magnetic analyses from four sediment cores collected on continental slope of Storfjorden and Kveithola trough‐mouth fans (western Spitsbergen margin, southern Svalbard archipelago). In detail, piston core SV-04 was collected during the Spanish...

Hydrothermal Friction data of gouges derived from the Alpine Fault

Niemeijer, Andre

2017

The Alpine Fault, New Zealand, is a major plate-bounding fault that accommodates 65–75% of the total relative motion between the Australian and Pacific plates. Here we present data on the hydrothermal frictional properties of Alpine Fault rocks that surround the principal slip zones (PSZ) of...

Supplement to: Growing Faults in the Lab: Insights into the Scale Dependence of the Fault Zone Evolution Process

Ritter, Malte C. | Rosenau, Matthias | Oncken, Onno

2017

This dataset is supplementary material to the article of Ritter et al. (2017). In this article, the similarity of fault propagation work in analogue sandbox experiments to natural fault networks is investigated through measurements in a strike-slip sandbox and in a ring-shear-tester. The...

Supplement to "Analogue earthquakes and seismic cycles: Experimental modelling across timescales"

Rosenau, Matthias | Corbi, Fabio | Dominguez, Stephane | Rudolf, Michael | Ritter, Malte | Pipping, Elias

2016

This data set contains various data derived from rock and rock analogue testing and analogue models which are presented in Rosenau et al. (2016) to which these data are supplement to..A first group of data contains animations of complementary analogue and numerical models of subduction zone...

Supplementary material for analogue experiments on the interactions of two indenters, and their implications for curved fold-and-thrust-belts

Reiter, Karsten | Kukowski, Nina | Ratschbacher, Lothar | Rosenau, Matthias

2016

This data publication includes animations and figures of eight scaled analogue models that are used to investigate the evolution of a curved mountain belt akin to the Pamir and Hindu Kush orogenic system and adjacent Tadjik basin. Crustal deformation is simulated by means of indentation of...
