The upper layers of the bed materials are deformed by the frictional drag of the overlying ice. Unconsolidated material will act like a ball bearings and allow the glacier to move forward.

What is anelastic deformation?
Anelastic deformation. Deformation processes where a material assumes its original shape after the load is removed, but with a time delay.
How do you calculate permanent deformation?
Deformation is calculated by using deflecto meter.
What is a deformation and what causes it?
Deformation is a change in the shape and volume of a rock, deformation is produced when a rock experiences a stress that is greater than the strength of the rock.
How are metamorphic rock structures related to deformation?
Deformation can create metamorphic rock structures.....
How deformation happens in non crystalline material?
permanent deformation in non crystalline materials is due to viscous flow or localized slip! deformation depends on glass transition temperature.
What kind of deformation leads to deformation?
elastic deformation
Why used cast iron in lathe bed not mild steel?
Cast iron is less susceptible to deformation from applied forces from the machinery.
What are the types of rock deformation?
elastic deformation, ductile deformation and fracture
What is elastic deformation?
Elastic deformation is recoverable deformation. As such, when the load that caused the deformation is removed the material will return to it's original shape.
Which is not a form of rock deformation?
ductile deformation
What is cold plastic deformation?
it is deformation below recrystalization temperature.
What is anelastic deformation?
Anelastic deformation. Deformation processes where a material assumes its original shape after the load is removed, but with a time delay.
What is plastic deformation?
Plastic deformation is a permanent unrecoverable deformation. When the load that caused the deformation is removed, the material will not return to it's original shape but will maintain it's newly deformed shape.
What is elastic deform?
Elastic deformation is recoverable deformation. As such, when the load that caused the deformation is removed the material will return to it's original shape.
How do you calculate permanent deformation?
Deformation is calculated by using deflecto meter.
What type of deformation leads to earthquakes?
iT CHANGES THE SHAPE OF THE ROCK BUT DOES NOT CAUSE EARTHQUAKES
What is a deformation and what causes it?
Deformation is a change in the shape and volume of a rock, deformation is produced when a rock experiences a stress that is greater than the strength of the rock.
