GeoMod2008 materials benchmark: The sieve dataset

Klinkmüller, Matthias | Schreurs, Guido | Rosenau, Matthias

2016

This dataset provides sieve data (grain size distributions) on natural and artificial granular materials used for experimental simulation by the analogue geodynamic modelling community (21 sands and glass beads). The material samples have been collected community-wide and analysed at GFZ...

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...

Paleomagnetic data of the Balzes Anticline

Rodríguez-Pintó, Adriana | Pueyo, Emilio L. | Sánchez-Moreno, Elisa

2020

This dataset is built from data published in two different articles (Rodríguez-Pintó et al. 2012 and 2016). The main scientific goal described in the articles is the quantification of vertical axis rotations (VAR) around the bended axis of the Balzes anticline in the South Pyrenean frontal...

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: Sandbox Rheometry: Co-Evolution of Stress and Strain in Riedel- and Critical Wedge-Experiments

Ritter, Malte Christian | Santimano, Tasca | Rosenau, Matthias | Leever, Karen | Oncken, Onno

2017

This dataset is supplementary to the article of Ritter et al. (2017). In this article, a new experimental device is presented that facilitates precise measurements of boundary forces and surface deformation at high temporal and spatial resolution. This supplementary dataset contains the...

Supplement to: Identification of kinematic boundary conditions triggering removal of material in tectonically erosive margins : insight from scaled physical experiments

Albert, Francisca

2013

This data set includes movies and images of sandbox experiments aiming at understainding the process of subduction erosion at active plate margins (Albert, 2013). Four experiments are documented by means of movies showing the evolution of a strong wedge (sand-sugar mix, “Reference...

Supplement to: Scaling the Sand Box - Mechanical (Dis-) Similarities of Granular Materials and Brittle Rock

Ritter, Malte Christian | Leever, Karen | Rosenau, Matthias | Oncken, Onno

2016

The dataset presented here contains the results of mechanical testing of two granular materials (quartz sand and glass micro beads) that are commonly used in analogue tectonic experiments. The data were acquired using a ring-shear tester RST-01.pc [Schulze, 1994]. Tests were performed at...

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...

Rheometric measurements of salted type A gelatins

Brizzi, Silvia | Funiciello, Francesca | Corbi, Fabio | Di Giuseppe, Erika | Mojoli, Giorgio

2017

Gelatin is a versatile material commonly used in analogue modelling because of its complex rheology, which allows simulating a wide range of tectonic processes requiring either elastic (e.g., dyke intrusions models) and viscoelastic behavior (e.g., analog earthquakes models). Salt (NaCl) is...

Particle size distribution analyses of volcanic ash from Campi Flegrei (Italy) and Sakurajima (Japan) volcanoes

Del Bello, Elisabetta | Taddeucci, Jacopo | Scarlato, Piergiorgio | Giacalone, Emanuele

2017

This data publication includes particle size distribution data of natural volcanic ash samples used as starting material for laboratory experiments simulating the aggregation/disaggregation of colliding volcanic ash particles. Full details of the experimental method can be found in Del Bello...
