中文摘要：

岩石变形是构造地质学研究的重要内容.自20世纪50年代起,随着理论的不断完善和技术手段的不断成熟,岩石变形研究由最初的对单一地质构造露头的定性几何描述到逐步定量化研究.目前,岩石变形的研究大多限于单一尺度下的均匀变形研究,缺乏多尺度、非均匀变形的综合性研究.基于此,本文重点介绍了能够从多个尺度对地壳岩石变形进行综合研究的最新方法—多阶幂律模拟法.该方法对于深入理解自然界变形拥有巨大的优势：1）是建立在科学的非线性非均质变形理论体系上的一种新的岩石变形模拟方法;2）为解决露头尺度与宏观尺度的岩石变形研究提供了新的思路;3）基于Mathcad软件进行模拟,具有图表可视化和易于操作的特点.

英文摘要：

Rock deformation is one of most important research field of structural geology. The study about the rock deformation has been developed from the qualitative describe of outcrop to quantized research with the promotion of theory and technological ways since 1950 s.And at present,the researches of rock deformation just focus on the study of steady field in a single scale while lacks of the comprehensive study,like multi scale and unsteady deformation field research.From above all,the latest research method,Multi-Order Power-Law Approach,will be introduced in this paper,which involved different scales of studies of the earthcrust rock deformation. Several advantages could be seen from this new method.Firstly,it is a new way of studying rock deformation which based on the theoretical system which is scientific,non-linear and nonuniform deformation;Secondly,it provides a thought of achieving integrated study between the outcrop scale and the macro-scale;Thirdly,it can be easily observed and manipulated for the simulation built by the Mathcad software.
