PALEOTECTONIC EVOLUTION OF THE CENTRAL AND WESTERN ALPS
Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1960This paper deals with the general features of Mesozoic and Tertiary rock sequences and paleogeography in the Alps. It seeks to outline the paleotectonic significance of the rocks and to discuss the structural evolution of the Alpine geosyncline up to the main deformation, with special reference to the sector between the rivers Rhine and Durance.

Stratigraphy, structure and metamorphism in the western Alps
Proceedings of the Geologists' Association, 1963Abstract The French Alps may be divided into a series of longitudinal structural zones. For the most part these zones represent thrust slices or nappes and they are often separated by sheets of salt and gypsum which have been squeezed out from the Triassic strata and act as lubricants.

The Geometry of Crustal Shortening in the Western Alps
1989The use of structural data to define the convergence history across orogenic belts has been handicapped by the absence of a coherent tectonic model within which it is possible to unravel the relative horizontal displacements, their lateral continuity and compatibility.
