STRUCTURAL GEOLOGY HATCHER 7 Flashcards
imperfectios in crystal lattice
Defects
involves a foreign ion or atom in a lattice site or a normal atom out of its proper place, may be introduced while the crystal is forming
Substitution or Interstitial Defects
defects when an unoccupied site is produced due to irradiation by high energy particles and by sudden cooling of a crystal from high temp
Vacancies
A line on a crystallograhic slip plane that separates the slipped from the unslipped portion of a crystal
Dislocation
Lines dislocation in w/c slip sense across the crystalloraphic slip plane is normal to the dislocation
Edge Dislocation
Lines dislocation in w/c slip sense across the crystalloraphic slip plane is parallell to the dislocation
Screw Disolications
Describing edge or screew dislocations
Burgers Vectors or Circuit
Consist of irregularities in the repeat order of unit cells in a series of layers in a lattice
Stacking Faults (As in pagkakamali)
A deformation that occur in a crystal by HOMOGENOUS SIMPLE SHEAR that causes movement of a dislocation located parallel to an existing crystallographic plane thus having an offset planes called slip systems
Dislocation or Translational Gliding
aka Mechanical Crystal Plasticity
A defomration by Homogenous simple shear that produces DEFLECTION SLIP of less than 1 repeat interval along crystallographic planes thus producing Shear induced twinning of the crystal
Twin Gliding
Brittle deformation concentrated on movement surfaces that have NO COHESION which produces granulation of rock at LOW T and P with high strain rate
Cataclasis
Cohesive rocks produced by this brittle granulation of rocks mostly angular
Cataclasite
Ductilely formed fault rocks which iccurs under conditions of moderate to low strain rate and high temp
Mylonite
Brittle deformation (microscopic) which produces apparent flow of fine grain material.
Ductile sa labas pero net effect lang ng cataclasis
Cataclastic Flow
Behavior that shows apparent megascopic ductile behaviour but is shown to be brittle in microscopic scale
Triboplastic
