Three hundred and forty-three samples, representing weathering profiles or sequences of some twenty-three different rock types collected in the field in Brazil, have been analyzed by wet-chemical, physical and x-ray diffraction methods for the purpose of understanding the processes involved in the decomposition of rocks by weathering and in the formation of clay minerals. Evidence indicates that there is a strong relationship between (a) the presence or absence of quartz in the parent rock and...

On the basis of the whole rock major element characteristics and trace element abundance patterns in clinopyroxenes, the harzburgites were found to be residues...

A fracture model is being developed based on the hypothesis that dynamic tensile failure in rocks occurs by the activation of preexisting flaws which propagate and may coalesce to produce fragments of various size. During the previous year the first two stages of the fracture process--flaw activation and crack growth--were treated quantitatively. The fracture model in its present stage of development allows us to predict the number of cracks, the total fracture surface area, and the energy...

Brazilian tests were carried out to determine size-tensile strength dependence in dacite, Valders limestone, and St. Cloud gray granodiorite. It was concluded that there is a size effect on tensile strength; in Brazilian test, this effect is governed mainly by the position and orientation of the internal flaws relative to the loaded diametral plane. A two-dimensional computer program simulating the Brazilian test was written. The program employs four-sided, isoparametric elements and is based...

Shock tube studies of shock enhanced mixing of helium into air were reported utilizing the Rayleigh scattering technique. Because-of-their greater sensitivity in the low concentration range, these measurements were believed to be more accurate than those obtained with laser induced fluorescence.

New shock compression and release adiabat data to approx. 150 GPa are reported for kaolinite clay and rocks derived from clay- and mica-rich materials. The kaolinite data yield an STP isentropic bulk modulus (Kso) of 49.4 GPa. This is very similar to K% for muscovite mica (52 GPa), although the density is lower (2.594 Mg/rn3 vs. 2.835 Mg/rn3 for muscovite). Unlike muscovite, kaolinite apparently transforms to a new (unidentified) phase under shock compression. Carbonate-poor shale (approx. 8%...
