GeoMod2008 materials benchmark: The sieve dataset

This dataset provides sieve data (grain size distributions) on natural and artificial granular materials used for experimental simulation by the analogue geodynamic modelling community (21 sands and glass beads). The material samples have been collected community-wide and analysed at GFZ Potsdam in the framework of the GeoMod2008 conference benchmark initiative. The context of data collection, details of the material samples and measuring techniques as well as interpretation and discussion of results can be found in Klinkmüller et al. (2016) to which this dataset is supplement material.

本数据集提供供类比地球动力学建模社群用于实验模拟的天然及人工颗粒材料（共21种砂与玻璃珠）的筛析数据（sieve data，即粒度分布）。这些材料样本由社群广泛收集，并在GeoMod2008会议基准倡议框架下于波茨坦GFZ完成分析。数据采集背景、材料样本细节、测量技术以及结果解读与讨论可参见Klinkmüller等人（2016）的文献，本数据集为该文献的补充材料。
