Scaling Geological Fracture Network from a Micro to a Macro Scale
Characterizing fracture systems at various scales, modeling fracture distributions, and clarifying scale relations that correlate total fracture systems are of paramount importance in geology, mining, civil engineering, and petroleum engineering. In this

Quantitative determination of fault slip magnitude: a review
In geology, a fault is a rock fracture with perceptible relative displacement of the opposite sides of the fracture. Quantitatively obtaining the activity history of faults depends mainly on the estimation of fault slip and the study of markers, which ...

Asymmetric continental deformation during South Atlantic rifting along southern Brazil and Namibia [PDF]
Plate restoration of South America and Africa to their pre-breakup position faces the problem of gaps and overlaps between the continents, an issue commonly solved with implementing intra-plate deformation zones within South America.

Rupture by damage accumulation in rocks [PDF]
The deformation of rocks is associated with microcracks nucleation and propagation, i.e. damage. The accumulation of damage and its spatial localization lead to the creation of a macroscale discontinuity, so-called "fault" in geological terms, and to the
