Rock Deformation - Integration of Field Observations, Experiments and Numerical Modelling

Rock Deformation - Integration of Field Observations, Experiments and Numerical Modelling

Prof. Dr. O. Oncken, Prof. Dr. G. Dresen, Dr. S. Sobolev – Deutsches GeoForschungsZentrum GFZ

Tuesday, September 29 and Wednesday, September 30, 2015
GFZ, Telegrafenberg, 14473 Potsdam
Building Haus H, Room VR1

The course will include lectures, lab visits and practical exercises and will be supervised by:

  • Prof. Dr. Onno Oncken: analogue modelling
  • Prof. Dr. Georg Dresen: rock mechanics
  • Dr. Stephan Sobolev: numerical modelling


During the short course, scientists from several communities in analogue and numerical modelling as well as experimental rock mechanics will bring in their expertise and thereby stimulate interdiscplinary discussion between the participants.
