Abstract

This book has grown out of a need to teach fundamental, practical aspects of structural geology to undergraduate and postgraduate students in the earth sciences and they have written to provide a basic text at undergraduate university level. We have tried to assemble a comprehensive account of such basic techniques as could be the foundation of a practical and theoretical course in the analysis of tectonic structures, stress and strain. Volume 1 covers the principles of deformation, and Volume 2 applies these principles specifically to the analysis of folds and fractures. Key Features * Provides a unique practical introduction to structural geology for students * Uses over 220 clear line figures * Lavishly illustrated throughout with 107 high quality photographs showing features of naturally deformed rocks over a range of scale aerial photographs, field photographs and photomicrographs * Starts each session with the formulation of a problem and presentation of any essential background or necessary mathematical techniques * Gives graded problems with solutions fully discussed in the text drawing out key features of the methods used * Provides 22 working diagrams for use is problem solving

Abstract

"Lavishly illustrated in color, this textbook takes an applied approach to introduce undergraduate students to the basic principles of structural geology. The book provides unique links to industry applications in the upper crust, including petroleum and groundwater geology, which highlight the importance of structural geology in exploration and exploitation of petroleum and water resources. Topics range from faults and fractures forming near the surface to shear zones and folds of the deep crust. Students are engaged through examples and parallels drawn from practical everyday situations, enabling them to connect theory with practice. Containing numerous end-of-chapter problems, e-learning modules, and with stunning field photos and illustrations, this book provides the ultimate learning experience for all students of structural geology"
