This project investigates the transition between brittle and plastic deformation in the Earth's lithosphere. By conducting high-pressure experiments, it aims to understand the conditions that influence fault strength and earthquake dynamics.
The lithosphere is the thin outer shell of the Earth that supports the weight of mountains, plate tectonic forces, and stores the elastic energy that is released during earthquakes.
The strength of the lithosphere directly controls the formation of tectonic plates and the generation and propagation of devastating earthquakes.The strongest part of the lithosphere is where the deformation processes in rocks transition from brittle fracture to plastic flow.
This transition controls the strength of…
