The intent is to consider these processes within a framework set both by the individual mechanisms of deformation and the fundamental mechanics that describe and relate these mechanisms. Such mechanisms do not necessarily operate independently of each other but may be strongly coupled so that each process has strong feedback influences on the others leading to structures and mineral assemblages that do not develop in the uncoupled environment. The general system we consider in this book is a deforming, chemically reactive system in which fluid and thermal transport play significant roles"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Machine generated contents note: Part A: The Mechanics of deformed rocks Part B: Processes involved in the development of geological structures Part C: Feedback between the processes operating during deformation Part D: The development of geological structures Appendix A: Vector and Tensor algebra Appendix B: Mathematical relations Appendix C: A history of thermodynamics relevant to deformed metamorphic rocks Appendix D: Notation, units and conventions Index. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 1 $a Volume 1.
