「Central African Shear Zone」の版間の差分

<br>The Central African Shear Zone (CASZ) (or Shear System) is a wrench fault system extending in an ENE path from the Gulf of Guinea by Cameroon into Sudan. The structure is not properly understood. The shear zone dates to at the very least 640 Ma (million years ago). Motion occurred along the zone in the course of the break-up of Gondwanaland within the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods. A number of the faults within the zone were rejuvenated greater than once before and during the opening of the South Atlantic within the Cretaceous period. It has been proposed that the Pernambuco fault in Brazil is a continuation of the shear zone to the west. In Cameroon, the CASZ cuts across the Adamawa uplift, a post-Cretaeous formation. The Benue Trough lies to the north, and the Foumban Shear Zone to the south. Volcanic exercise has occurred alongside most of the size of the Cameroon line from 130 Ma to the current, and may be associated to re-activation of the CASZ.<br><br><br><br>The lithosphere beneath the CASZ in this space is thinned in a comparatively slim belt, with the asthenosphere upwelling from a depth of about 190 km to about 120 km. The Mesozoic and Tertiary movements have produced elongated rift basins in central Cameroon, northern Central African Republic and southern Chad. The CASZ was formerly thought to extend eastward solely to the Darfur region of western Sudan. It is now interpreted to extend into central and eastern Sudan, with a complete length of 4,000 km. Within the Sudan, the shear zone could have acted as a structural barrier to improvement of deep Cretaceous-Tertiary sedimentary basins in the north of the realm. Objections to this theory are that the Bahr el Arab and Blue Nile rifts lengthen northwest past one proposed line for the shear zone. However, the alignment of the northwestern ends of the rifts on this areas helps the speculation.

For liquids, it corresponds to the informal concept of thickness; for example, syrup has a higher viscosity than water. Viscosity is outlined scientifically as a [https://k1t.kr/vanessa94y8212 Wood Ranger Power Shears website] multiplied by a time divided by an space. Thus its SI models are newton-seconds per metre squared, or pascal-seconds. Viscosity quantifies the inner frictional [http://git.maiwd.cn:3000/lanorafritz287 Wood Ranger Power Shears review] between adjacent layers of fluid that are in relative movement.

However, the dependence on a few of these properties is negligible in certain circumstances. For instance, the viscosity of a Newtonian fluid does not vary significantly with the rate of deformation. Zero viscosity (no resistance to shear stress) is noticed only at very low temperatures in superfluids; otherwise, the second regulation of thermodynamics requires all fluids to have positive viscosity. A fluid that has zero viscosity (non-viscous) is known as best or inviscid. For non-Newtonian fluids' viscosity, there are pseudoplastic, plastic, and dilatant flows that are time-unbiased, and there are thixotropic and rheopectic flows which can be time-dependent. The word "viscosity" is derived from the Latin viscum ("mistletoe"). Viscum also referred to a viscous glue derived from mistletoe berries. In materials science and engineering, there is often curiosity in understanding the forces or stresses involved within the deformation of a cloth.<br>
