Peer reviewedMcEachran, David Ballard; Marshak, Stephen – Journal of Geological Education, 1986
Describes three microcomputer programs that allow geology students to deform two-dimensional images on a computer screen and then to measure changes in angular relationships. Two of the programs simulate pure and simple shear and the third simulates variations in shear strain that occur in shear zones. (ML)
