Three‐dimensional vorticity and time‐constrained evolution of the Main Central Thrust zone, Garhwal Himalaya (NW India)
Vorticity estimates based on porphyroclasts analysis are limited by the extrapolation to three
dimensions of two‐dimensional data. We describe a 3D approach based on the use of X‐ray …
