This textbook describes the physics of the plastic deformation of
solids at high temperatures. It is directed at geologists or
geophysicists interested in the high-temperature behaviour of
crystals who wish to become acquainted with the methods of
materials science in so far as they are useful to earth scientists.
It explains the most important models and recent experimental
results without losing the reader in the primary literature of
materials science. In turn the book deals with the essential
solid-state physics; thermodynamics and hydrostatics of creep;
creep models and their applications in the geological sciences;
diffusion creep; superplastic deformation and deformation enhanced
by phase transformations. Five concluding chapters give
experimental results for metals, ceramics and minerals. There are
extensive bibliographies to aid further study.
