About this document
Measuring Strain in Geological Rocks by darebusi1 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Structural strain in rocks can be measured by observing changes in the shape of originally circular or linear objects, such as fossils or crystals. Several methods can be used to analyze strain, including measuring the ellipticity of originally circular objects or analyzing the orientation of foliations, lineations, and shear zones. The relationship between strain and these structural features provides information about the deformation history of the rock.
