大多数地壳变形理论模型都假设岩石要么根据某种屈服准则破裂(通常视为对压力的简单线性莫尔-库仑依赖性),要么由于晶体塑性或扩散而以粘性方式流动。然而,直接现场观察显示断裂和流动之间存在更密切的相互作用,前体断裂定位随后的延性剪切区,而这些剪切区又可能被离散断裂所覆盖,这意味着脆性-延性行为的多个周期。裂缝和流动可能在小距离内同时存在,活动裂缝周围的扰动流动产生特征性的侧翼结构。如果流变模型要真实地模拟岩石变形,则必须包括这种相关的脆性-延性行为。
Most theoretical models of crustal deformation assume that rocks either fracture according to some yield criterion (usually taken as a simple linear Mohr-Coulomb dependence on pressure) or flow in a viscous manner due to crystal plasticity or diffusion. However, direct field observation shows a much more intimate interplay between fracture and flow, with precursor fractures localizing subsequent ductile shear zones that may in turn be overprinted by discrete fractures, implying multiple cycles of brittle-ductile behaviour. Fracture and flow may be coeval over small distances, with the perturbation flow surrounding active fractures producing characteristic flanking structures. Rheological models must include this linked brittle-ductile behaviour if they are to realistically model rock deformation.
