摘要
In this paper, the authors summarized deformation mechanisms of crustal rocks and the progress of the rheological experiments under high temperature and pressure,and discussed the quality of rheological experiment data. Although a great amount of creep test data have been published, the data of natural felsic rock,as well as data of quartz published in early time are hard to be reduplicated. However, the creep data of quartz and feldspar published in recent years are of very high quality. Some studies show that flow laws of two-phase rocks could be fitted using the empirical and theoretical models and rheological parameters of end member minerals.
