Nominally dense, two-phase marbles were made by hot-isostatic pressing of mixtures of calcite and amorphous carbon. The carbon grains were either spheres or splinters with known size distributions, were chemically inert, and are nearly rigid. Adding 1 vol.% spheres caused only small changes in strength or CPO. Strengths were consistent with the activation of slip on f <101-bar>, the hardest system in calcite. Adding 10 vol.% splinters increased the strength at low strains and strain rates but had smaller effects at high strains or rates. The CPO of rocks containing splinterswere similar to those in pure samples, butwith reduced intensity.When 10 vol.% sphereswere added, the aggregate strength under confined torsion was less than that of the pure material. Distinct and intense CPOs developed. The reduced stresses were consistent with those necessary for slip on systems weaker than f. Viscoplastic self-consistent calculations used to model the texture evolution required slip on f<101-bar>and c<101-bar>to match the CPO of pure samples; resultswere consistent with the inclusion of slip onr<101-bar>. In samples containing 10 vol.% spheres deformed in torsion, slip activity on the harder systemswas decreased. The exact cause of the strength reduction in these experiments is not understood, but it is possible that adding smooth spheres enhanced grain-boundary sliding, thereby decreasing activity on f<101-bar>. Thus, shape and volume fraction of second phases may be important in determining CPO and strength; and it is important to consider the loading geometry. 收起
