Course objectives (in Czech)

Předmět seznamuje posluchače se základy tektonické terminologie a hlavními poznatky oboru strukturní geologe. Pro ukončení předmětu je nutné zvládnutí obsahu strukturně-geologických pojmů a jejich vzájemných souvislostí. Zvláštní důraz je kladen na deformační struktury.

Syllabus

• Structure and deformation. Force, stress on a plane, stress at a point, principal stresses, Mohr diagram. Strain in one dimension. Strain in two dimensions, strain ellipse, practical strain measurement. Strain in three dimensions, strain ellipsoide. Kinematics, pure and simple shear, kinematic markers, shear zones. Deformation mechanisms, plastic deformation, recrystalization, fracturing. Sedimentary structures, sedimentological markers. Magmatic structures. Description and classifcation of folds, mechanics of folding, refolded folds. Faults, joints and cleavage. Normal and thrust faults, strike-slip fault. Nappes.
