The role of grain boundaries in low-temperature plasticity of olivine revealed by nanoindentation

The rheological properties of olivine influence large-scale, long-term deformation processes on rocky planets. Studies of the deformation of olivine at low temperatures and high stresses have emphasized the importance of a grain-size effect impacting yield stress. Laboratory studies indicate that ag...
