Michael and Christopher wrote a blog article about their fieldwork in Iceland and how that relates to analogue models to understand subsurface structures. Check it out!

In this Minds over Methods we don’t have one, but two scientists talking about their research! Michael Kettermann and Christopher Weismüller, both from Aachen University, explain us about the multidisciplinary approach they use to understand more about massively dilatant faults. How do they form ...

Hallo zusammen,
die Endo sucht fürs Wintersemester 4 HIWIs @ 2h pro Woche fürs Endo Tutorium und 1 HIWI um das Übungsangebot über L2P auszuweiten, ebenfalls @ 2h/Woche.
Ihr solltet selber gut bis sehr gut in der Endo abgeschnitten haben und Spaß daran haben anderen etwas beizubringen. Ihr werdet das Tutorium weitgehend alleine durchführen (nach wöchentlicher Einweisung zu den entsprechenden Übungen) und solltet daher auch in der Lage sein vor einer Gruppe zu sprechen und Verantwortungsbewusstsein mitbringen.
Wenn ihr Interesse habt, meldet euch direkt bei mir, aber bitte nicht über Facebook sondern email ([email protected]) oder schaut direkt in der Lochnerstraße vorbei, ich bin im 3. Stock Raum 314.
Michael

We have two seminars in our NUGGED seminar series this week! Drop by on Wednesday 12:00 to hear a talk by Daniel Bücken about the effect of mechanical stratigraphy on normal fault evolution. On Thursday 14:00 Albert Riehm will present his work on agglomeration of iron ore green pellets and mechanical properties.
The talks will be in room 408 (Lochnerstraße 4-20, Haus A, 4th floor) and they are open for all brown-bag seminars, so invite your friends and bring your lunch!
