xiv, 578 pages : illustrations ; 26 cm "Rock fractures control many of Earth's dynamic processes, including plate-boundary development, tectonic earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and fluid transport in the crust. An understanding of rock fractures is also essential for effective exploitation of natural resources such as ground water, geothermal water, and petroleum. This book combines results from fracture mechanics, materials science, rock mechanics, structural geology, hydrogeology, and fluid mechanics to explore and explain fracture processes and fluid transport in the crust. Basic concepts are developed from first principles and illustrated with worked examples linking models of geological processes to real field observations and measurements. Many additional examples and exercises are provided online, allowing readers to practise formulating and quantitative testing of models. Rock Fractures in Geological Processes is designed for courses at the advanced undergraduate and graduate level but also forms a vital resource for researchers and industry professionals concerned with fractures and fluid transport in the Earth's crust"-- Fluid Mechanics Rock Mechanics Geology, Structural Hydrogeology Groundwater Flow--Mathematical Models Groundwater Flow Rocks -- Fracture Rocks--Fracture--Mathematical models 624.15132 9780521863926 e-Library Universitas Pertamina Be Global Leader 624.15132 GUD r 8897/PUP/2019 Perpustakaan Universitas Pertamina 624.15132 GUD r c.1 9475/PUP/2020 Perpustakaan Universitas Pertamina 624.15132 GUD r c.2 NAB_20220509_12.jpg.jpg 4873 2022-05-09 14:44:15 2022-05-10 15:20:43 machine generated
