During the past five decades, numerical modeling of subduction, one of the most
challenging and captivating geodynamic processes, remained in the core of geodynamic …

The Zagros foldbelt–foreland system in SW Iran is a prolific hydrocarbon province with
known reserves of more than 90 billion brl of oil and 800 TCF of natural gas. Establishing the …

It is well documented that the interplay between crustal thickening and surface processes
determines growth of continent‐continent collision orogens from small and cold to large and …

Abstract The Dezful Embayment is the most important fertile oil province of the Zagros Fold-
Thrust Belt. It includes several incompetent strata as basal and intermediate décollement …

The external part of the Northern Apennines accretionary wedge in northern Italy is buried
beneath its fast subsiding and asymmetric foreland basin in the Po Plain. It is characterized …

A forward sequence of folding is interpreted in the northwest Zagros fold belt using two new
magnetostratigraphic studies to date non-marine foreland successions in the Afrineh and …

Most natural examples of transpression zones developed at oblique convergence regime
are inherently 3D and have inclined boundaries. A 3D finite element model with an elasto …

Résumé A variety of thin-skinned fold-and-thrust belts are associated with multiple
décollements, which have low frictional basal and intermediate décollements related to …

Six series of particle-based numerical experiments were performed to simulate thin-skinned
contractional tectonics in stratigraphic sequences with double décollements during …

Although most arcuate orogens are deformed as progressive arcs—curvature is acquired
during shortening‐, they have been scarcely simulated by analog modeling. To investigate …
