Fault Analysis to Determine Deformation History of Kubang Pasu Formation at South of UniMAP Stadium Hill, Ulu Pauh, Perlis, Malaysia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Kubang Pasu Formation at South of UniMap Stadium Hill has suffered deformation that produced fault with various types and orientations. First deformation (ST1) is southeast – northwest were resulted normal, reverse, dextral and sinistral fault.

Difference and mechanism of dynamic behaviors between two walls of normal fault

open access: yesMeitan kexue jishu, 2023
With the development of large-scale mining activities, the normal fault is prone to slide and instability, resulting in vibration waves, which show significant asymmetric dynamic response characteristics in the areas on both sides of the fault.

The influence of normal stress and sliding velocity on the frictional behaviour of calcite at room temperature. Insights from laboratory experiments and microstructural observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The presence of calcite in and near faults, as the dominant material, cement, or vein fill, indicates that the mechanical behaviour of carbonate-dominated material likely plays an important role in shallow- and mid-crustal faulting. To better understand

Simulation of rock salt dissolution and its impact on land subsidence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Extensive land subsidence can occur due to subsurface dissolution of evaporites such as halite and gypsum. This paper explores techniques to simulate the salt dissolution forming an intrastratal karst, which is embedded in a sequence of carbonates, marls,

Half graben versus large‐offset low‐angle normal fault: Importance of keeping cool during normal faulting [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2002
We study the effect of temperature in the crust on the style of faulting during the extension of a model lithosphere. Two distinct fault patterns are seen depending on whether the brittle layer thickness HL is greater or less than a critical value HC.

The role of coseismic Coulomb stress changes in shaping the hard-link between normal fault segments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The mechanism and evolution of fault linkage is important in the growth and development of large faults. Here we investigate the role of coseismic stress changes in shaping the hard-links between parallel normal fault segments (or faults), by comparing ...

Strain compatibility and fault linkage in relay zones on normal faults [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Structural Geology, 2012
Relay zones on normal faults are unlikely to have tabular geometries as depicted in idealised models. Rotation of a relay ramp between non-parallel and non-planar relay-bounding faults will inevitably lead to strain compatibility problems causing open gaps or overlaps within the relay zone. Linkage of relay-bounding faults does not evolve from a single

Listric Normal Faults [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
The importance of listric normal faults in the formation of sedimentary basins is becoming increasingly more obvious. Based on reflection seismic sections and surface observations, the following genetic types may be differentiated: - listric normal faults involving the basement that are associated with some crustal attenuation. Such faults occur during

Forming peculiarities and manifestation of tectonic faults in soft rocks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Features of distribution of tectonic structures in soft rocks confirm the presence of horizontal tectonic forces in the formation of faults and are based on the manifestation of their morphological features.
