Fault-surface geometry controlled by faulting mechanisms: Experimental observations in limestone faults [PDF]

open access: possibleGeology, 2017
Surface geometry is an essential component in faulting and earthquake dynamics, yet its evolution and interrelationship with friction are poorly understood. The geometric characteristics of smooth fault surfaces are herein investigated by combining direct shear experiment results with statistical analysis of the surface topography.

Hierarchical geometry of faulting

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1996
Several joint and fault patterns were mapped at different scales (from 1 cm to 100 km) on the sedimentary cover of Saudi Arabia. They were analyzed using a new multifractal algorithm improved to correct for irregular geometry of mapped domains and finite size effects.

The geometry of normal faults

Journal of the Geological Society, 1990
This meeting took place at Burlington House on 14 and 15 June 1989. Until recently a specialist structural geology meeting on a theme such as this would have been solely the preserve of the Tectonic Studies Group.

Sediment geometries and domino faulting

Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 1993
Abstract A general forward modelling scheme is used to produce a model of sediment geometry in half-grabens formed during extension of domino fault blocks. The model includes the effects of erosion, sediment transport, sedimentation and isostasy and simulates both syn- and post-rift sedimentary sequences.

The impact of fault surface 3D geometry on risking fault reactivation

2023
The reactivation of faults can occur when the effective stresses acting on them are perturbed. In some cases man-made changes in effective stress can result in fault reactivation that can have enormous impacts including loss of integrity of underground storage facilities. Current practical methods for making this assessment are generally based on shear
