Strain localization is a common feature of viscous, elastic and/or plastic materials undergoing non-homogeneous deformation. During the deformation of rocks or magmatic suspensions, strain may be variably partitioned (spatially and in magnitude) between phases or multi-scalar heterogeneities of variable strengths, which may promote the development of shear zones and/or shear bands (e.g., Wright and Weinberg 2009); as such, strain localization is a scale-dependent phenomenon that may range between discrete and pervasive deformation. Strain localization takes place in... You do not have access to this content, please speak to your institutional administrator if you feel you should have access.
