Grain boundary sliding in San Carlos olivine: Flow law parameters and crystallographic-preferred orientation

We performed triaxial compressive creep experiments on aggregates of San Carlos olivine to develop a flow law and to examine microstructural development in the dislocation-accommodated grain boundary sliding regime (GBS). Each experiment included load and temperature steps to determine both the stre...
