An exact solution to the problem in elastic geobarometry of combining non-linear Equations of State (EoS) with the elastic relaxation for elastically isotropic spherical host-inclusion systems without any approximations of linear elasticity is...
Read more40 Years of mineral elasticity a critical review and new equation of state for mantle olivines
The new review manuscript by Ross Angel “40 years of mineral elasticity: a critical review and a new parameterisation of equations of state for mantle olivines and diamond inclusions” has just been published online on Physics and...
Read moreContinuous phase transitions in EosFit
Continuous phase transitions in minerals, such as the α–β transition in quartz, can give rise to very large non-linear variations in their volume and density with temperature and pressure. In Angel et al 2017 we present a simplified description...
Read moreThermo-elastic behavior of grossular garnet
In her manuscript Sula Milani provides for the first time consistent the thermo-elastic parameters for grossular garnet using simultaneous fitting of pressure-volume-temperature data combined with either adiabatic (KS) or isothermal bulk modulus...
