SHEARCALC是为了在蚀变区自动进行质量平衡计算而创建的。该程序可以最成功地应用于韧性剪切带,在韧性剪切带中,未变形的围岩经过几个原糜棱岩阶段转变为细粒糜棱岩。该程序是用Visual Basic 6.0编写的,并提供了许多Windows(TM)应用程序的典型功能,以增加用户友好性。SHEARCALC包括一个输入部分,用于输入所调查岩石的样品名称、比重和化学数据,以及选择不可移动元素和比例因子,以便在等等线图中适当显示数据。在计算部分,计算了等斜线的斜率和两个特定蚀变阶段之间的相关体积变化。此外,主要元素在变形过程中的增益和损失由各自的传质方程表示。作为一个特殊的功能,SHEARCALC包含一个广泛的图表部分,用户可以在其中选择三种图表类型。除了经典的等斜线图外,元素的质量变化也用特定的二维或三维条形图来显示。沿剪切带横断面的单元行为由二维或三维剖面图记录。SHEARCALC是一个适用于现代Windows(TM)操作系统的独立应用程序,因此不同于地球科学中许多只能在DOS模式下运行的程序。(C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
SHEARCALC was created to automate mass balance calculations in an alteration zone. The program can be most successfully applied to ductile shear zones, where an undeformed wall rock is transformed into a fine-grained mylonite via several protomylonitic stages. The program was written in Visual Basic 6.0 and offers numerous features typical for Windows(TM) applications to increase the user friendliness. SHEARCALC consists of an input part for entering sample names, specific weights and chemical data of the investigated rocks as well as for selecting immobile elements and scaling factors for an appropriate display of the data in the isocon diagram. In the calculation part, the slope of the isocon and related volume changes between two specific stages of alteration are computed. Additionally, gains and losses of the main elements during deformation are expressed by respective mass transfer equations. As a special feature, SHEARCALC contains an extensive diagram section, where the user can select between three chart types. Besides the classical isocon diagram, mass changes of elements are also displayed in specific two- or three-dimensional bar charts. Element behaviour along a transsect through the shear zone is documented by two- or three-dimensional profile graphs. SHEARCALC is a stand-alone application adapted to modern Windows(TM) operating systems and therefore differs from many available programs in the geoscience which only run in DOS mode.
