Presents a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the fundamental aspects of structural geology, emphasising both classical concepts and modern developments. A detailed account of the techniques of geometrical analysis is provided, giving a sound background to principles of geological deformation and in-depth analysis of mechanisms of formation of geological structures. Many new features are included such as detailed discussions on rotation of rigid inclusions and passive markers, boudinage (including chocolate tablet boudins, foliation boudins and shear fracture boudins), structural implications of basement-cover relations and time-relation between crystallation and deformation. The book presents the methods of structural analysis from microscopic to map scale, describes modern techniques used in field and laboratory and offers a balanced picture of modern structural geology as it emerges from combined field, experimental and theoretical studies.

In the case of nearly all branches of science a great advance was made when accurate quantitative methods were used of more qualitative. One great advantage of this is that it necessitates more accurate thought, points out what remains to be learned, and sometimes small residual quantities, which otherwise would escape attention, indicate important facts.

This combination of text and lab book presents an entirely different approach to structural geology. Designed for undergraduate laboratory classes, it provides a step-by-step guide for solving geometric problems arising from structural field observations. The book discusses both traditional methods and cutting-edge approaches, with emphasis given to graphical methods and visualization techniques that support students in tackling challenging two- and three-dimensional problems. Numerous exercises encourage practice in using the techniques, and demonstrate how field observations can be converted into useful information about geological structures and the processes responsible for creating them. This updated fourth edition incorporates new material on stress, deformation, strain and flow, and the underlying mathematics of the subject. With stereonet plots and solutions to the exercises available online at www.cambridge.org/ragan, this book is a key resource for undergraduates, advanced students and researchers wanting to improve their practical skills in structural geology.

This market-leading textbook has been fully updated in response to extensive user feedback. It includes a new chapter on joints and veins, additional examples from around the world, stunning new field photos, and extended online resources with new animations and exercises. The book's practical emphasis, hugely popular in the first edition, features applications in the upper crust, including petroleum and groundwater geology, highlighting the importance of structural geology in exploration and exploitation of petroleum and water resources. Carefully designed full-colour illustrations work closely with the text to support student learning, and are supplemented with high-quality photos from around the world. Examples and parallels drawn from practical everyday situations engage students, and end-of chapter review questions help them to check their understanding. Updated e-learning modules are available online (www.cambridge.org/fossen2e) and further reinforce key topics using summaries, innovative animations to bring concepts to life, and additional examples and figures.

Folding and Fracturing of Rocks was first published in 1967. It was one of the first major publications aimed at developing for geologists the basic theory of stress and strain in mathematical terms and explaining how this theory could be used to solve practical problems in structural geology and tectonics. Although out-of-print for many years, it is still one of the most frequently cited and quoted texts in modern research publications in structural geology. Although texts discussing the basic theory of stress and strain had been long available in engineering, metallurgic and materials science, very few of these texts made any reference to the application of these principles to the study of rock strain, fracturing and folding processes commonly arising in geology. Folding and Fracturing of Rocks developed the theory of both small and large finite strain with particular emphasis on progressive deformation and its geological implications for the development of the structures actually observed in naturally deformed rocks. It was one of the first textbooks to discuss the practical methods for evaluating the states of finite strain in two and three dimensions and the implications of these methods to further our understanding of structural geometry. The book set out the concepts of displacement and finite strain and showed how strain states could be represented in diagrammatic forms as originally devised by Otto Mohr for states of stress. Many of the developments were novel at the time of publication and have had major applications in subsequent research. The discussions and methods of strain analysis set out in Folding and Fracturing of Ricks have stood the test of time and many of the subsequent research developments in structural geology have their origins in this book. The reasons for the relevance of this book to current research are first, the book is based on sound mathematical principles that have not become dated and second, the discussions of deformation theory are illustrated with many photographs of the structures seen in naturally deformed rocks. The author has always been of the opinion that the structures actually observed in naturally formed rocks form the key to our understanding of tectonic processes and that the development of mechanical models for the origin of these structures must always be compared with natural systems if they are to be truly relevant. John Ramsay was born in London in 1931. He did his doctoral research in the Scottish Highlands working on the deformation patterns seen in complexly folded rocks of the Moine Series and the relationships seen in folded basement and cover rocks obtaining his Ph.D. in 1954. After undertaking his military service in the Corps of the Royal Engineers (as Violoncellist and Tenor drummer) he was appointed to the teaching staff of Imperial College in 1957. Subsequently he held Professorships at London University and Leeds University. In 1977, he was appointed to a Professorship of Geology at the Eidgen ssische Technische Hochschule and University of Z rich, Switzerland. John Ramsay has been author and co-author of four books and many papers in structural geology. His work in advancing structural geology has been recognized by the awards of the Bigsby and Wollaston medals of the Geological Society, the Prestwich Medal of the Soci t G ologique de France, the Holmes Medal of the European Union of Geosciences, the Tranenster Medal of the University of Li ge, and in 1992 he was appointed to the Order of Commander of the British Empire in the Queen's Honours list.

This edited book discusses various challenges in teaching structural geology and tectonics and how they have been overcome by eminent instructors, who employed effective and innovative means to do so. All of the chapters were written by prominent and active academics and geoscientists fully engaged in teaching Structural Geology and Tectonics. New instructors will find this book indispensible in framing their teaching strategy. Effective teaching of Structural Geology and Tectonics constitutes the backbone of geoscience education. Teaching takes place not only in classrooms, but also in labs and in the field. The content and teaching methodologies for these two fields have changed over time, shaped by the responsibilities that present-day geoscientists are expected to fulfill.

Problems and Solutions in Structural Geology and Tectonics, Volume 5, in the series Developments in Structural Geology and Tectonics, presents students, researchers and practitioners with an all-new set of problems and solutions that structural geologists and tectonics researchers commonly face. Topics covered include ductile deformation (such as strain analyses), brittle deformation (such as rock fracturing), brittle-ductile deformation, collisional and shortening tectonics, thrust-related exercises, rift and extensional tectonics, strike slip tectonics, and cross-section balancing exercises. The book provides a how-to guide for students of structural geology and geologists working in the oil, gas and mining industries.
