ADVANCED TOPICS IN GEOLOGY

GEOSCI 875

Special topics in Geoscience.

PHYSICS OF THE EARTH II

GEOSCI 796

Theory and observations of earthquakes, seismic waves and plate tectonics.

GEOMECHANICS

GEOSCI/GLE 596

Observation, description, and prediction of deformation of geomechanical systems at depth, and the forces (stress) causing those deformations, relevant for petroleum/geothermal reservoirs and studies of earthquake mechanics. Emphasis on computational exercises using datasets from the petroleum industry and earthquake catalogues, as well as prediction of ground deformation.

TECTONOPHYSICS

GEOSCI/GLE 747

Elasticity and flexure of the earth's lithosphere, heat conduction, mantle convection, earthquake mechanisms, rock rheology, and fluid migration in the earth's crust; integration of geophysical observations, laboratory experiments, and theoretical models.

ADVANCED ROCK MECHANICS

GEOSCI/GLE 757

Experimental rock mechanics, rock mechanics apparatus design, static and dynamic rock friction, rate and state friction, crack phenomena and rock fracture mechanics, earthquake energy budget, elastic/viscoelastic/plastic behavior of rocks, engineering and geological applications. Knowledge of introductory rock mechanics [such as M S E/GEOSCI/CIV ENGR/G L E/M S & E 474] required.
