We consider the current state of our understanding of the rheology of two-phase magmas,
that is suspensions of either bubbles or crystals in a viscous silicate melt. The discussion is …

Lava flows are gravity currents of partially molten rock that cool as they flow, in some cases
melting the surface over which they flow but in all cases gradually solidifying until they come …

This vital reference is the only one-stop resource on how to assess, prevent, and manage
severe nuclear accidents in the light water reactors (LWRs) that pose the most risk to the …

Until now colloid science books have either been theoretical, or focused on specific types of
dispersion, or on specific applications. This then is the first book to provide an integrated …

The viscosity of magma exerts control on all aspects of its migration through the crust to
eruption. This was particularly true for the 2021 eruption of Cumbre Vieja (La Palma), which …

Vesicles in volcanic rocks are frozen records of degassing processes in magmas. For this
reason, their sizes, spatial arrangements, numbers and shapes can be linked to physical …

To understand how frictional melting affects fault instability, we performed a series of high‐
velocity friction experiments on gabbro at slip rates of 0.85–1.49 ms− 1, at normal stresses of …

In the broadest sense, volcanic eruptions are either effusive or explosive. During explosive
eruptions magma fragments and eruption intensity is ultimately related to the fragmentation …

We present a kinematic, self-adaptive, numerical model to describe the down-flow thermal
and rheological evolution of channel-contained lava. As our control volume of lava …

When considering the rheology of a suspension the fundamental physical aspect to be
quantified is the redistribution of strain between the deformable matrix fraction of the …
