• Implications of grain size evolution on the seismic structure of the oceanic upper mantle (2008, background): “Grain size reduction can also occur via brittle processes (Goodwin & 135 Wenk, 1995; Bos & Spiers, 2001; de Bresser et al., 2001), however, for the high temperatures 136 associated with asthenospheric flow these effects can be ignored.”
• Shearing Melt Out of the Earth: An Experimentalist's Perspective on the Influence of Deformation on Melt Extraction (2009, background): “Since deformation in the asthenosphere is likely to be occurring near this boundary (de Bresser et al. 2001, Hirth & Kohlstedt 2003), these melt-sensitive processes affecting the LPO may be relevant to the interpretation of seismic anisotropy.”
• Effect of water on the dislocation creep microstructure and flow stress of quartz and implications for the recrystallized grain size piezometer (2006, methodology): “…sensitive creep mechanisms into the recrystallized grain size piezometer model as has been theoretically modeled in the field boundary hypothesis [De Bresser et al., 1998, 2001] and experimentally shown for Magnox (a magnesium alloy [De Bresser et al., 1998]) is probably not appropriate for quartz.”
• Grain size evolution and the rheology of ductile shear zones: from laboratory experiments to postseismic creep (2003, background): “[47,48] reasoned that the equilibrium grain size is such that the ratio of dislocation- to di¡usion-accommodated strain rate is a critical value, R, of order unity.”
• Crustal Deformation in the India‐Eurasia Collision Zone From 25 Years of GPS Measurements (2017, background): “Such weakening could be the natural result of strain localization mechanisms such as grain size reduction and shear heating (e.g., De Bresser et al., 2001; Kirby, 1985; Thatcher & England, 1998).”
• A thermodynamically self-consistent damage equation for grain size evolution during dynamic recrystallization (2011, background): “Most attempts of modelling grain coarsening or damage have assumed that the whole grain size distribution can be obtained by the knowledge of its mean grain size (cf. De Bresser et al. 2001; Ricard & Bercovici 2009).”
• Mechanisms for the generation of plate tectonics by two-phase grain-damage and pinning (2012, background): “…creep while rheological softening by grain-reduction occurs in other creep mechanisms like diffusion creep (Etheridge and Wilkie, 1979; De Bresser et al., 1998, 2001) (c.f. Faul et al., 2011); thus the necessary components of the feedback mechanism ostensibly occur in exclusive domains…”
• RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF WATER ICE—APPLICATIONS TO SATELLITES OF THE OUTER PLANETS 1 (2001, background): “The de Bresser et al (1998) hypothesis currently lacks a detailed microphysical basis, although there is remarkably strong support for Equation 26 in laboratory data on deformed olivine and calcite (de Bresser et al 2001).”
