Study of spatial-time inhomogeneity of serrated plastic flow Al-Mg alloy: using DIC-technique by T. V. Tretyakova, V. E. Wildemann

“…The digital image correlation is a highly effective computer-vision-based technique, which provides estimation of the displacement and strain fields on specimen surface by matching the reference subsets in the undeformed image (before loading) with the target subsets in the deformed images (captured during test). The evolution of inhomogeneous axial strain and axial strain rate fields has been illustrated for each stage of material’s deformation. …”

Influence of lateral heterogeneities on strike-slip fault behaviour: insights from analogue models by S. González-Muñoz, G. Schreurs, T. C. Schmid, F. Martín-González

“…The main observations are the following: </p><ul><li> <p id="d2e120">The homogeneous upper crust shows typical Mohr–Coulomb strike-slip faults, with synthetic fault strikes related to the angle of internal friction of the material used.</p></li><li> <p id="d2e124">The heterogeneous upper crust has a profound effect on synthetic fault propagation, interaction, and linkage, as well as the kinematic evolution of antithetic faults that rotate around a vertical axis.…”
