Hi Blake : I have 30 years of experience in the geology field. I finished my degree at Ohio University 1982. I love to learn and re-learning too.If I compare your explanation with my teachers with master and Phd , now I can compare that your explanation is 100 times easier to understand . I would say that learning has been progressing and your method is very efficient .Congratulation! for this recreation .Your great and easy explanation can be understood without any complication .It was very difficult to comprehend in the past these simple lessons including azimuth and quadrant and the orientation of the plane like crystallographic axis orientation .Thank you very much!
Hi Blake I thank you so much because your video helps me understand well the stereographic projection of line and plane. I got a question for you, for the plane reading (Strike, Dip angle), is it the true Strike or the Dip direction that you mean? I am kinda confused for this one Thank you in advance for your assistance, looking forward to your explanation :)
Hi there Blake! Thank Goodness I found this channel. We're having a 5 week preparation for fieldwork in the French Alps (4 weeks), and today was day one of the preparation. I didn't understand anything at all. We simply had 7 assignments. I couldn't do any of them, because I didn't understand anything at all! And we had 7 freaking hours for the assignments.... I'm dying! Thanks for the video's. They're a life-saver.
Hi rikalave, I used the book "Structural Analysis and Synthesis" by Stephen Rowland et al. I thought it was an excellent laboratory manual. This book is cited in my second video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--TPje1Ef-x4.html.
Agreed. This is SUCH a good textbook!!! I'm using it to help me plan the next 3rd yr structural geology class. "Stereographic Projection Techniques for Geologists and Civil Engineers" By: Richard J. Lisle, Peter R. Leyshon is also very good. This was my bible when I was a student. It explains every method and technique you need to do on a stereonet.
Thanks a lot, It helps me to understand the trend and plunge finally. I am a petroleum student,but the slides given by uni for this part is quite confusing, i stucked here for almost 2 hours, hopefully i find this video.
