Geology of the northwestern portion of the Ferriere-Mollieres Shear Zone, Argentera Massif, Italy [PDF]

open access: goldJournal of Maps, 2016
The Ferriere-Mollieres Shear Zone (FMSZ) is a regional shear zone cross-cutting the Argentera External Crystalline Massif (Western Alps). It shows a NW-SE striking dextral shear zone separating two Variscan migmatitic complexes: the Tinèe to the SW and the Gesso-Stura-Vesubiè to the NE.

Constraining the Timing of Evolution of Shear Zones in Two Collisional Orogens: Fusing Structural Geology and Geochronology [PDF]

open access: goldGeosciences, 2022
In recent decades, constraining the timing of shear activity has been one of the main topics of research about the tectono-metamorphic evolution of orogenic belts. We present a review of a combined structural and geochronological approach to two major ductile regional shear zones, in two collisional orogens: the first one affecting the Variscan ...

Microzonation of the Linares, Northeast Mexico area, based on geology and shear-wave velocity measurements

open access: hybridGeofísica Internacional, 2005
En este trabajo se ha definido la estructura de velocidades de ondas S (VS) y P (VP), así como el promedio de velocidades (V s30 ) para los primeros 30 metros del subsuelo, a partir de perfiles sísmicos de refracción en el área de Linares, Nuevo León, tomándose como indicador de las condiciones de sitio.

Geology of the coastal Chiapas (Mexico) Miocene plutons and the Tonalá shear zone: Syntectonic emplacement and rapid exhumation during sinistral transpression [PDF]

open access: goldLithosphere, 2015
Late Miocene plutons in coastal Chiapas, Mexico, represent the roots of an extinct magmatic arc. Miocene granitoids of calc-alkaline composition and arc chemistry intruded into and were deformed within the Tonala mylonite belt in the middle to upper crust. The mylonite belt is a crustal-scale shear zone extending along the western margin of the Chiapas

Development and Comparison of 3D Seismic Geology and Shear-wave Velocity Models of Metro Vancouver

open access: diamondSeismica
This study presents a 3D regional modeling of seismic geology and shear wave velocity (Vs) in Metro Vancouver for seismic microzonation and hazard prediction. Leveraging an extensive geodatabase compiled from invasive and non-invasive in situ data, including lithological logs and seismic field data, we delineated four major geological units: Holocene ...

Fuzzy set concept in structural geology: Example of ductile simple shear

open access: yesJournal of Earth System Science, 2021
Much of the time, geological data are not accurately known. Instead, geoscientists work with a range of possible data. These data can have a range since they can vary spatially and temporally. In this context, we demonstrate how a well-established structural geological model of velocity profile of ductile simple shear, expressed as an equation, can be ...

Geology of the Susa Shear Zone (Susa Valley, Western Alps) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2019
The 1:10,000 scale geological map of the Susa Shear Zone (SSZ) in the inner sector of the Western Alps, aims to describe the geological setting and tectonic evolution of a first-order Alpine shear zone, which drove exhumation and juxtaposition of different oceanic and continental margin units (i.e.
