The Effect of Brittle‐Ductile Weakening on the Formation of Faulting Patterns at Mid‐Ocean Ridges
TECTONICS
31 january 2025
Mingqi Liu, Taras Gerya, Antoine Rozel
Although seafloor spreading is one of the most prominent plate tectonic processes, its development and faulting pattern diversity are incompletely ...
The impact of strain rate weakening on the localization and stabilization of transform fault zones
RIFT TO RIDGE: BRIDGING THE EXTENSIONAL GAP I POSTER
volcanology, geochemistry and petrology | 13 december 2024
Sandrine Ritter, Attila Balazs, Taras Gerya
Brittle and ductile weakening mechanisms play a crucial role by locally reducing the strength of the lithosphere. Such weak zones can promote new tect...
