Description:
Rock fractures play a major role in many geological processes, such as plate tectonics, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and fluid transport in the earthś crust. The present volume contains the abstracts of all presentations of the symposium Rock Fractures in Geological Processes, held on 26-27 November 2013 in London honouring the 60th birthday of Ágúst Guðmundsson, chair in Structural Geology, Royal Holloway University of London, a leading expert in the field and author of a well known text book of the same title. The symposium covered all topics related to fractures in the earthś crust, e.g., crustal stresses, rock mechanical properties, field analysis of fractures - from joints and faults to mineral veins and dykes - , analytical, analogue and numerical models of fractures and related fluid transport, as well as the activity of faults and volcanoes including calderas, and economic aspects such as exploration and exploitation of hydrocarbons and geothermal energy.
