| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I experimentally studied mechanical properties and deformation mechanism on an accretionary prism, the Shimanto Belt in Kyushu island, to understand the strain accomodation and release in the subduction system. I conducted triaxial deformation experiments on both phyllite from hanging wall and melange from footwall of the Nobeoka thrust fault, and found that the samples deform brittle at lower effective pressure and ductile at higher effective pressure. I observed a difference in strength across the Nobeoka thrust fault; the phyllite is slightly stronger than the melange.
