However, at the low temperatures of space, brittle failure is more likely to occur. From studies of crevasse opening and closure, he contemplated both brittle and ductile aspects of ice deformation. Modelling of brittle and fatigue damage for elastic materials by the growth of microvoids. On the larger scale, observational studies of brittle and ductile deformation are included.

To the southwest and west it is bounded by ductile-to-brittle shear belts and brittle faults. Non-scarified seeds remained apparently unchanged physically, being hard and brittle when subsequently scarified; therefore, it is unlikely that slow imbibition occurred during incubation. Questioning, philosophic enquiry is replaced by brittle assertions of dogma. The dry samples of this facies give a soapy feel and are brittle, having conchoidal-like fractures. The western thrusts, in general, have a ductile character while brittle behaviour is observed in a few thrusts of the eastern tract. Rational choice models have been developed with mathematical elegance in mind and therefore tend to be extremely brittle. The value of my life's work suddenly seemed fragile and brittle. In addition, late brittle faults are clearly visible in the mountain walls in both gneiss and quartz syenite massifs. Extensional structures evolved under ductile to brittle conditions and indicate tectonic exhumation. Narrow millimetre-thick epidote veins are associated with brittle shear planes and faults. A brittle object, like the coffeecup in front of me, has, through its existence, a disposition to break. As a result, these tissues were difficult to section and very brittle. The last six chapters cover more advanced topics: rheological models, brittle failure, strain measurement, balanced cross sections, deformation mechanisms, and the geometry of plate tectonics. In the very old examples, the test becomes brittle and cellular. Prominent among these endosperm mutants are sugary (su), brittle-1 (bt-1) and shrunken-2 (sh-2). Deformation at the metamorphic climax continued during exhumation and progressed toward more brittle conditions with the same kinematics. Such reactivation of subvertical faults may have induced important fault offsets, while dry friction along brittle fault planes allowed the formation of pseudo-tachylyte. More specifically, the book covers aspects of brittle deformation that are not traditionally covered in other texts, such as the chapter on brittle micromechanics. Many normal brittle faults are observed in these formations. An extraordinary thick brittle crust is therefore indicated. All the terrane boundaries are complex zones of ductile to brittle shearing, modified by later brittle movements. Since stony meteorites are both hard and brittle, their shock response is a dissociation at high stress levels associated with microcracking. On one hand, symbolic approaches such as knowledge based expert systems are usually constructed in an ad hoc manner, and often considered to be brittle. The seeds had brittle white testae and tiny white embryos (less than 0.1 mm diameter). However, these materials are brittle and subject to defects when they are formed into very thin layers. After cacao seeds are roasted, the thin shells become brittle and are easily separated from the seeds. Nektonic taxa such as belemnites and ammonites dominate the fauna, with lesser bivalves and brittle stars found almost exclusively in the coarser units. The brittle fault zones observed in outcrops commonly are penetratively fractured into an ar ray of blocks whose surfaces have a wide distribution of orientations. Generally, brittle faults are loosely described as 'discontinuous deformation', whereas continuous deformation is frequently termed 'ductile'. However, the emphasis of the papers is very much on ductile shear zones rather than brittle faults. The second phase of deformation has produced welldeveloped structures that formed under semibrittle to brittle conditions. The system would be brittle and full of ad hoc assumptions, but it would generate the required behaviour. Records communicated authority yet words were plastic, brittle and vulnerable.

Section 3 on the 'brittle regime' gives a brief introduction to rheology and discusses the concepts of brittle and ductile behaviour. Winter wilts itself brittle rose petals persist, hanging dry to the thorn. In such domains, traditional planning approaches can result in plans that are brittle and prone to failure. Seeds were extremely brittle and difficult to dissect. The composer describes it as 'brittle, almost nostalgic' and in texture it makes a very different impact to its companion pieces. Two are for coarse grain collision interactions, one is for fine-grain brittle interactions, and the final example is concerned with friction-based interactions such as rubbing. During dehydration, a brittle fracture forms within the transition zone. Fault and joint development in brittle and semi-brittle rock. Pickling may be version-brittle, dependent on a particular version of the compiler or library and on the concrete implementation of abstract data types such as sets. The evidence for very brittle veining of the country rock, and extensive brecciation including fine comminution of quartz, indicates that the veining occurred in a very forceful manner. The similarity implies that joints in deformation band shear zones nucleate at ir regularities along or within the brittle shear zones, and that the deformation band shear zones are jointsaturated. Constraints on the measurement of extension in the brittle upper crust. During these xylophone-led segments the dominant mood grows increasingly turbulent, as more brittle, unstable material in mandolin, guitar, and celesta is introduced, and a sense of menace intensifies. 729 taphonomy, brittle deformation took place. Lastly, there is no ductilethen-brittle extensional detachment in the two areas where it has been invoked, that is, on the western and southern flanks of the dome. With increasing tensile stress the materials tensile strength is exceeded and brittle fractures form at a right angle to the action line of stress, parallel to lamination. Uplift of the basement and formation of late tectonic sedimentary basins occurred as a result of semi-ductile to brittle block faulting in a sinistral strike-slip regime. Next we deal with deformation and flow, force and stress, and conservation of mass and momentum, before focusing on elastic and brittle behaviour, then viscous deformation. The deformation is a typical example of a brittle-ductile shear zone where feldspars behaved in a relatively brittle manner while matrix foliation shows evidence for ductile deformation. With this in mind, the book summarizes the current understanding we have regarding brittle rock mechanics and provides an excellent reference for those dealing with experimental data. In summary, the book is a comprehensive and unique text that will appeal to a broad range of people with an interest in brittle rock deformation. As a matter of fact standard full parsing approaches tend to be slow (because of huge search spaces) and brittle (because of gaps in the grammar). Failure to meet expectations of resilience and rational behavior will trigger more experiments to better understand what traits created the unintended, but influential signals that create a brittle institution. Numerous young leaf stalks were brittle and spindly (dried quickly when not in contact with water), and some secondyear late stalks were brittle and dark purple.

In some cases, the primary flake edge may be strong and durable, while in others it will be brittle and delicate. Other papers illustrate the application of wider range of techniques to problems in corrosion, glass and brittle fracture of metals. The conventional image of a ceramic is of a hard brittle material used to make items such as crockery and tiles. However, their use is limited because they are brittle and perform poorly in tensile loading situations. Furthermore, the resin which is used to bond the fibres is also brittle, perhaps not quite as brittle as the glass, but very nearly so. The presence of internal defects in a brittle crystal is usually of minor importance. When cold the surplus pitch was sufficiently brittle to be scraped off, leaving those pleasing black lines in the deck.

Fire was the most unpredictable and lethal enemy of fences, incinerating posts and rendering wire too brittle to restrain without breaking. Finally, an indentation process caused vertical expulsion of the orogenic wedge and gravity collapse in the brittle crust. With increasing tensile stress due to dehydration, brittle fractures develop at these inhomogeneities. During dehydration, brittle fractures form within the transition zones.
