TIGeR Conference 2018
Coupling between Metamorphism and Deformation
12-14 September 2018
Curtin University, Perth, Western Australia
The aim of this 3-day conference is to promote progress at the leading edge of this topic through presentations and open-forum discussion.
The Conference will focus on new developments in our understanding of stress and strain distributions in reacting, heterogeneous rocks. The coupling of metamorphic and metasomatic reactions with deformation at different strain rates will be explored from various aspects: theoretical, experimental, geochemical and microstructural.
The total number of participants will be limited to about 80-100, to facilitate active participation and open discussion. So register early to avoid disappointment.
