The Impact of Matrix Rheology on Stress Concentration in Embedded Brittle Clasts

Abstract Frictional failure is the dominant deformation mechanism for rocks in the upper crust while in the middle crust rocks begin to deform viscously. Within this transition, brittle and viscous phases coexist, forming semi‐frictional materials. While semi‐frictional deformation on large scales m...
