Physical analog models are being conducted to study the relationships among basement fault segmentation, monoclinal folding, and surface strain patterns. The basic model design involves a stiff plastic sheet containing pre-cut fault segments overlain by alternating colored layers of dry sand. The ...

However, further south, seismic quality is in places relatively poor, especially where thick carbonates dominate the surface geology (e.g., parts of deep seismic reflection line CROP 1175; Fig. 1). Low-angle extensional detachments/shear zones have been proposed to explain low-angle reflections ...
Faults often form through reactivation of pre-existing structures, developing geometries and mechanical properties specific to the system’s geologic inheritance. Competition between fault geometry and other factors (e.g., lithology) to control slip at E

Three probability mass functions that can be used to draw the number of segments during the segmentation step: (a) uniform, (b) increasing, and (c) decreasing. Figure 4 Open in figure viewerPowerPoint (a1–a4) The generated interpretation scenarios are represented by association graphs. (b1–...
Assuming this rough segmentation scale of 30–50 km, the Chain Transform can be divided into 2 asperity regions (A1, A2) alternating with three barrier regions (B1, B2, B3) where no large (MW ≥ 6.0) earthquakes have been recorded but are rather characterized by aseismic slip and/...
The secular model component was largely developed by Smith and Sandwell [2003], who used 1099 GPS horizontal velocity measurements and long-term slip rates from geology to estimate the locking depths along 18 curved fault segments. Because our initial model used a simple elastic half-space, the ...
Fig. 8: Spatial segmentation of the Jiali Fault’s Holocene activity. The grey and light grey points represent the ages and locations of terrace sediments that have not been deformed by the fault (data from Chen et al.55 and Yungchen et al.56). The points with different colours are the ...
