This manual pertains to the publication titled "Fault and Joint Development in Brittle and Semi-Brittle Rock," authored by Neville J. Price and edited by F. H. T. Rhodes. Published by Pergamon in May 2015, this technical book is part of The Commonwealth and International Library: Geology Division. It is intended as a reference for professionals in geological disciplines and as study material for undergraduate students of geology, covering concepts and criteria of brittle failure, the limits of temperature and pressure for brittle/semi-brittle rock behavior, and the application of brittle failure concepts and elastic theory to faulting and jointing.
The purpose of this manual is to provide comprehensive information on the subject matter of fault and joint development in brittle and semi-brittle rock. It details various concepts, including the criteria for brittle failure and its application to geological formations. The manual also explores the theoretical underpinnings of rock behavior under specific temperature and pressure conditions, offering insights into the application of elastic theory in understanding faulting and jointing phenomena. This resource is designed to support in-depth study and professional reference within the field of geology.
Fault and Joint Development: In Brittle and Semi-Brittle Rock details the theoretical concepts about fault and joint development in rock when they behave as brittle or semi-brittle material.
The title first covers the concepts and criteria of brittle failure, along with the limits of temperature and pressure below which rocks may behave in a brittle or semi-brittle manner. Next, the selection details the application of the concepts of brittle failure and elastic theory to the problems of faulting and jointing.
The book will be of great use to undergraduate students of geology and its related degrees. The text will also serve professionals in geological disciplines as a reference.
