Fault Displacement Hazard for Strike-Slip Faults

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2011
In this paper we present a methodology, data, and regression equations for calculating the fault rupture hazard at sites near steeply dipping, strike-slip faults. We collected and digitized on-fault and off-fault displacement data for 9 global strike- slip earthquakes ranging from moment magnitude M 6.5 to M 7.6 and supplemented these with ...

Identification and Interpretation of Buried Strike-Slip Fault-An Example of the Discovery of the Liaoxi Strike-Slip Fault

81st EAGE Conference and Exhibition 2019, 2019
Summary The identification and interpretation of buried strike-slip fault have important guiding significance for oil and gas exploration. Therefore, taking the buried strike-slip fault in Bohai Bay Basin as the research object, through regional analogy, causes analysis of structural phenomena and study of plane and sections characteristics, it is ...

Dating of the Karakorum Strike‐slip Fault

Acta Geologica Sinica - English Edition, 2001
AbstractThis paper mainly discusses the timing of the Karakorum strike‐slip fault, and gives a brief introduction of its structures, offset, and deformational style. This fault strikes NNW‐SSE. Asymmetrical folds, stretching lineation, S‐C fabrics, feldspar and quartz s̀‐porphyroclasts, domino structure, shear cleavages and faults in the fault zone are

Strike-slip faults

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1988
The importance of strike-slip faulting was recognized near the turn of the century, chiefly from investigations of surficial offsets associated with major earthquakes in New Zealand, Japan, and California. Extrapolation from observed horizontal displacements during single earthquakes to more abstract concepts of long-term, slow accumulation of hundreds
