This Volume brings together twelve contributions to a symposium
held in hon our of GEORG MANDL at the University of Graz, Austria
on December 1-2, 1995, in the year of his 70th anniversary. It is a
tribute to a formidable scientist colleague and friend and a gift
of gratitude to an inspiring leader and great in stigator. A man,
who began as a theoretical physicist, made fundamental contri
butions to the theory of transport processes in porous media and
the mechanics of granular materials, but in his forties turned to
structural geology and the me chanics of tectonic faulting - a
subject that has since remained at the center of his interests and
the understanding of which was substantially advanced by Georg
Mandl's work. In addressing different aspects of tectonic faulting,
mostly if not entirely from a theoretician's or modeler's point of
view, the contribu tions to this Volume reveal some of the
astonishing richness of the subject, the corresponding diversity in
approaches and also challenges that lie ahead. They aptly evoke the
broad scientific culture brought by Georg Mandl to the study of his
favourite subject, a culture he had acquired in the course of a
career in a nowadays rare environment of industrial research and
which interested readers will find sketched in the Biographical
Note included in this Volume. As such, as well as in their own
right, the papers contributed to this Festschrift should be of
interest to a wider community of Earth scientists.
