Abstract
⺠The paper describes how to estimate the localization potential of several processes. ⺠Shear heating, grain size reduction, and metamorphism are discussed. ⺠Development of a foliated fabric has the highest potential for localization. ⺠Localization is possible only if hydrated minerals are present. ⺠This work explains the absence of ductile localization and plate tectonics on Venus.
