• Solitary vs periodic solutions
• Solitary wave amplitude close to source amplitude
• Transient effects lead to mass loss

Birth of the Blob
• Stringent nucleation conditions• Small amplification, low velocities
• Dissipative transient effects
Bad news for Blob fans:

Is the blob model stupid?
A differential compaction model

The details of dike-like waves

Final comparison
• Dike-like waves nucleate from essentially nothing
• They suck melt out of the matrix
• They are bigger and faster
• Spacing c, width d
But are they solitary waves?

Pressure,Porosity
• Essentially 1D lateral pressure profile• Waves grow by sucking melt from the matrix
•The waves establish a new “background”” porosity• Not a true stationary state

So dike-like waves are the ultimate in porosity-wave fashion:
They nucleate out of essentially nothing They suck melt out of the matrix
They seem to grow inexorably toward disaggregation
But
Do they really grow inexorably, what about 1?Can we predict the conditions (fluxes) for disaggregation?

Mathematical Formulation
• Incompressible viscous fluid and solid components
• Darcy’s law with k = f(), Eirik’s talk
• Viscous bulk rheology with
• 1D stationary states traveling with phase velocity
