Isotropy vs anisotropy
Some Minerals
Generalization
Isotropic Constitutive Equation
Basic Types of Anisotropy Transverse Isotropy Azimuthal anisotropy Composite (cracks)
Causes of Anisotropy Lattice Preferred Orientation (LPO) –Alignment of mineral grains Shape Preferred Orientation (SPO) –Alignment of heterogenieties Cracks Melt lenses
Transverse Isotropy
Transverse Isotropy Love – Rayleigh Discrepancy
“Azimuthal” anisotropy: like transverse isotropy on its side Azimuthal Anisotropy
McNamara, van Keken, and Karato [2002] D″ Anisotropy Lattice-Preferred Orientation (LPO)? Shape-Preferred Orientation (SPO)? Result of a Chemical Boundary Layer? Related to Slabs?
