Anatomy of strike-slip fault tsunami genesis. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2021 Tsunami generation from earthquake induced seafloor deformations has long been recognized as a major hazard to coastal areas. Strike-slip faulting has generally been believed as insufficient for triggering large tsunamis, except through the generation of submarine landslides.

Lithospheric models supported by the Caribbean and Levant examples help rethink transpression at plate boundaries [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsStrike-slip restraining bends, such as the Levant Fault, belonging to push-up systems and the Jamaican fault network, belonging to duplex systems, display a diversity of fault geometries and deformation patterns that reflect distinct modes of ...

Characterization parameters of the evolution degree of strike-slip faults
Shiyou shiyan dizhi, 2023 Strike-slip faults and their related structures have great value for oil and gas exploration. Accurate understanding of the evolution degree of strike-slip faults is crucial to oil and gas exploration in strike-slip structural belts.

Origin and growth mechanisms of strike-slip faults in the central Tarim cratonic basin, NW China
Petroleum Exploration and Development, 2021 Through fault structure analysis and chronology study, we discuss the origin and growth mechanisms of strike-slip faults in the Tarim Basin. (1) Multiple stages strike-slip faults with inherited growth were developed in the central Tarim cratonic basin ...

Equal Spacing of Strike-Slip Faults [PDF]
Geophysical Journal International, 1976 Summary Strike-slip fault systems on continents frequently occur in groups of several roughly equally-spaced faults. In this article these systems are simulated by a model. A physical mechanism is then presented, which appears to explain the phenomena shown by the model both qualitatively and to a certain extent quantitatively.
