The non-cylindrical character of the Variscan Belt is established via a description of its most
salient geological characteristics and correlations among the main and relatively minor …

Aesthetically appealing thrust systems and related large-scale anticlines, in both active and
fossil foreland fold-and-thrust belts, and the economic potential associated with them, have …

State-of-the-art analysis of geological structures has become increasingly quantitative but
traditionally, graphical methods are used in teaching. This innovative lab book provides a …

The existing 3D geological modeling systems rely heavily on large numbers of borehole and
cross-section data. However, it is well known that the available geological data are generally …

Folding that is directly related to fault activity is an important deformation feature that occurs
all over the world in mountain belts, accretionary wedges, fold-and-thrust belts, and intra …

The Subandean ranges of northwestern Argentina are an active thin-skinned fold and thrust
belt. The main detachment level in Silurian shales dips 2–3° W, and all the major east …

Many studies have shown that discrete (blind) faults at depth are commonly linked to more
distributed deformation, in particular folding, at higher levels. One category of fault-related …

Abstract The Indo‐Burma subduction zone is a highly oblique subduction system where the
Indian plate is converging with the Eurasian plate. How strain is partitioned between the …

Computer modeling and visualization of geological faults in 3D is currently a topical
research area because of its important theoretical and application value. The usual method …

When the blind thrust fault slips due to earthquakes, overburden soil strata may deform and
fail leading to a development of a coseismic fault zone. How overburden soil strata will …
