Non-Dilatant Brittle Deformation and Strength Reduction of Olivine Gabbro due to Hydration

To investigate the influence of hydration on brittle deformation of oceanic crustal rocks, we conducted triaxial deformation experiments on gabbroic rocks with various degrees of hydration at a confining pressure of 20 MPa and room temperature, measuring elastic wave velocity. Hydrated olivine gabbr...
