Description
The primary objective of this book is to present the basic concepts of structural geology to undergraduate students. A comprehensive coverage of important topics, such as folding, joints, faults, diaperism, unconformities, impact structures, igneous rocks and geophysical methods essential for both the geologist and geophysicist is incorporated. Emphasis is laid on mathematical methods especially while dealing with mechanical principles, mechanics of folding, jointing, plastic deformations, and geophysical methods. Laboratory exercises encourage students to analyze geological problems in a wider perspective. References at the end of each chapter render the book useful to advanced reader also. - from Amzon
