Mechanical Weakness of the Nankai Accretionary Prism: Insights From Vp Measurements of Drill Cuttings
Abstract The relationship between P‐wave velocity (Vp) and unconfined compressive strength (C0) can be used to estimate in situ rock strength and stresses at depth in subduction zones. However, few reliable data on the Vp‐C0 relationship in deep accretionary prism sediments are available. Here, we d...
