    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 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 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 :)

    pls explain why we measure attitude of rocks..??
    what is the application of measuring attitude of rocks??

    If i say strike:due south(270°),would it be wrong.If so please explain

  • @annagrendys6831
    @annagrendys6831 Před 2 lety

    How did you get from a strike 000 to 040 and from dip 60 to dip30? Was this just an example? I’m confused

    • @BSplitt
      @BSplitt  Před 2 lety

      Yes, that is just a different example! The plane that I start referencing at 15:33 has no relation to either picture above.

  • @rikalaveraman8769

    Please tell me a good book for practical work of structural geology. And a book for problems with solutions of structural geology.

    • @BSplitt
      @BSplitt  Před 7 lety +3

      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: czcams.com/video/-TPje1Ef-x4/video.html.

    • @MrGreenLand
      @MrGreenLand Před 6 lety

      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.

  • @theviralpostofindia
    @theviralpostofindia Před 7 lety

    There is a little bit confusion in the way you explained trend and its counter part in the first box. Please suggest a good explanation

    • @BSplitt
      @BSplitt  Před 7 lety

      Can you give a timestamp?

  • @kaishuchiisiina2353
    @kaishuchiisiina2353 Před 4 lety +1

    8:08. Should that be S 5°E??? I am confuse

    • @BSplitt
      @BSplitt  Před 4 lety

      Hi Kaishu, the video correctly lists it as S 85° E. You must start at the South direction and then measure the angle measurement eastward of South.

    Hi Blake, How did you know the trend was 200 and not 20??

    • @BSplitt
      @BSplitt  Před 5 lety +1

      The trend line points in the down-dip direction!
