The importance of grain size evolution durnig shearing of quartz-plagioclas aggregates: Numerical modelling
The student will perform mechanical numerical experiments at the centimeter scale that involves stress and strain-rate dependent grain size evolution and its rheological consequences.
He/she will test whether and in what form grain size reduction/growth affect the long-term strength of shear zones.
