6 ADIABATIC SHEAR BANDING
7 Adiabatic shear-banding (1/3) τ γ& T Strain rate hardening τ c τ ( γ&,t ) and Temperature softening γ τ H = ( > ) & γ τ ξ = ( < ) T Simple model: : strain rate hardening modulus : temperature softening coefficient (& & ) ( ) τ = τ + H γ γ + ξ T T s T s : threshold for temperature softening
8 Adiabatic shear-banding (2/3) We consider a shear experiment at constant strain rate Assumption: all the frictional energy is converted into heat ( ( s )) ρct& = τγ& = τ + ξ T T & γ at t = : T = T and τ = τ s z u z (z,t) & γ = V h σ V/2 h ρc : specific heat Integrating the above differential equation we get: τ = + ξ ξγ& ρc T Ts 1 exp t ξγ& ξ τ c = τ exp t = τ exp γ ρc ρc x τ -V/2 τ c γ for : + and τ t T T s τ ξ
9 Linear stability analysis of adiabatic shear-banding (1/5) To study the stability of adiabatic shear banding we perform a linear perturbation analysis of the uniform solution T ( z, t) = T ( t) + T ( z, t) V ( z, t) = & γ z + V ( z, t) τ ( z, t) = τ ( t) + τ ( z, t) z T1 ( z, t) = Aexp( st) exp 2π i λ z V1 ( z, t) = Bexp( st) exp 2π i λ z τ1( z, t) = Dexp( st) exp 2π i λ s is the growth coefficient in time of the instability λ=h/n is the wave length of the instability (N=1,2, wave number)
10 Governing equations(with heat diffusion term) Constitutive equation: c th : thermal diffusivity Stability analysis of adiabatic shear-banding (2/5) (& & ) ( ) τ = τ + H γ γ + ξ T T Energy balance: 2 T ρc T& cth τγ 2 z = & Momentum balance: τ V = ρ z t s 2π i ξ H 1 λ 2 A 2π 2π i ρc s + cth τ & γ B = λ λ D 2π i ρs λ For non trivial solution :(A,B,C) (,,) π 2π 2π ρcρ s + ρc ( ρcth + H ) ξργ& s + ξτ + ρccthh = λ λ λ Stability condition: All the roots of the characteristic equation have a negative real part
11 Stability analysis of adiabatic shear-banding (3/5) For strain rate and temperature softening (H < and ξ < ), the uniform solution is unstable for all wave lengths of the perturbation For strain rate hardening and temperature softening (H > and ξ < ) Stability condition: ξτ 2 2π + cthhρc > λ < λcr, with λcr = 2 λ π cthhρc ξτ Perturbations with wavelengths shorter than the critical value will decay exponentially; those greater than the critical value will grow exponentially. Only shear zones with a thickness h < λ cr /2 will support stable homogeneous shear.

14 THERMAL PRESSURIZATION OF THE PORE FLUID : A MECHANISM OF THERMAL SOFTENING
15 z x Undrained adiabatic shearing of a saturated rock layer u z (z,t) u x (z,t) Solution: σ n -V/2 ( σ n ) ( σ n p ) V/2 p, T h & γ = f Λ p = p + p 1 exp( γ & t) ρc f Λ = + 1 exp( & γ ) Λ ρc T T t V h p T mass balance: = Λ t t T 1 V energy balance: = ( σ n p) f t ρc h / 2 & γ f = f + H log & γ is the rate-dependent friction coefficient Λ = λ f n λ is the coefficient of thermal pressurization (typical values:.1 to 1 MPa/ C) n β + β f The pore-pressure increases towards the imposed normal stress σ n. In due course of the shear heating and fluid pressurization process, the shear strength τis reduced towards zero. 15
16 Linearstability analysis of undrained adiabatic shearing of a saturated rock layer Stability condition: Rice et al., (214), J. Geoph. Res. λ < λ, with λ = 2π cr cr ( c ) th + chy H ρc f Λ f + H & γ ( 2 ) Only shear zones with a thickness h < λ cr /2 will support stable homogeneous shear. Competing processes: Fluid and thermal diffusion and rate-dependent frictional strengthening tend to expand the localized zone, while thermal pressurization tends to narrow it. For representative material parameters at a seismogenic depth of 7km, V=1m/s, h=1mm λ / 2 = 3µ m for intact material, 23 µ m for damaged material cr The localizedzone thickness may becomparable withthe gouge grain size 16
17 LOCALIZED ZONE THICKNESS AND MICROSTRUCTURE Stability analysis of undrained adiabatic shearing of a rock layer with Cosserat microstructure Sulem, Stefanou, Veveakis, (211), Granular Matter Strainhardeningelasto-plasticity for 2D Cosseratcontinuum
18 Rock layer at great depth (7km) Cosserat continuum Cosserat terms are active only in the post localization regime Microinertia Wave length selection is obtained (wave length with fastest growth in time) Cauchy continuum The critical hardening modulus for instability is unchanged (h cr =.15). The growth coefficient tends to infinity for the infinitely small wave length limit (ill-posedness).
19 The selected wave length decreases with decreasing hardening modulus and reaches a minimum (for λ~2). λ is the wave length normalized by the internal length of the Cosserat model R (grain size). With R=1µm(grain size for highly finely granulated fault core) the obtained localized zone thickness is about 1mm which is compatible with field observations of localized shear zones in broader damaged fault zones.
