Foliation

The house was a big elaborate limestone affair, evidently new. Winter sunshine sparkled on lace-hung casement, on glass marquise, and the burnished bronze foliations of grille and door.

Formation of alteration minerals in the host rock during deformation within the shear zone is indicated by the parallel foliation within the secondary micaceous minerals and the unmineralized host schist.

The dominant strike orientation of both bedding and foliation of Vermont bedrock is north or northeasterly.

They show that curved inclusion trails may form even with no coupling, as the porphyroblast overgrows foliation that is deflected around it.

In sedimentary rocks, the magnetic foliation results from a combination of depositional processes and diagenetic compaction.

Historically, the formalism which first arose for the material we discuss is that of measured foliations in surfaces.

We will show that every closed 3-manifold has a foliation of codimension one. In 1952, G. Reeb published his construction of a foliation of the 3-sphere. About twelve years later, W. Lickorish [123] exhibited foliations of codimension one on every closed, orientable 3-manifold.

The simplest example of a foliation is provided by a single submersion F : M → N, M and N being manifolds.
