Transient diffusional creep (Raj)
Duration of diffusional transient (following elastically accommodated sliding)
d = (1-)kTd3/[403GUDb].
Transient creep rate is enhanced relative to steady-state diffusional creep rate by factor (t/d)-1/2
which integrates to a creep function of Andrade form t1/2 (Gribb and Cooper) yielding a wide absorption band with Q-1 ~ To

Melt-free olivine Tightly interlocking grains (triple junctions ~ 2 nm) Dissipation background only*: 1/Q ~ X; with
X = (To/d) exp(-EB/RT),= 1/4*, EB = 400 kJ/mol
Melt-bearing olivine (melt fraction ) Network of triple-junction tubules (dimension ~ ) Dissipation background + broad peak

Conclusions
Mildly frequency- and grain-size-sensitive background-only behaviour of fine-grained melt-free olivine (c. f. silicon nitride, carbide and alumina) suggests diffusionally accommodated grain-boundary sliding (gbs)
Prior elastically accommodated gbs inhibited by tight grain-edge intersections in melt-free materials?
1/Q peak + background for melt-bearing materials with grain edges rounded at triple-junction melt tubules suggests gbs with mix of elastic & diffusional accommodation
Need improved micromechanical model incorporating compliant grain-edge tubules & allowing possibility of sliding with concurrent elastic & diffusional accommodation
Dislocation relaxation & role of water remain to be systematically addressed
