A review of recent developments concerning the structure, mechanics and fluid flow properties of fault zones
Daniel R. Faulkner,Christopher A.-L. Jackson,Rebecca J. Lunn,Roy W. Schlische,Zoe K. Shipton,Christopher A. J. Wibberley,Martha Oliver Withjack +6 more
TL;DR: Fault zones and fault systems have a key role in the development of the Earth's crust and control the mechanics and fluid flow properties of the crust, and the architecture of sedimentary deposits in basins as discussed by the authors.

Deformation bands in sandstone: a review
TL;DR: Deformation bands are the most common strain localization feature found in deformed porous sandstones and sediments, including Quaternary deposits, soft gravity slides and tectonically affected sandstones in hydrocarbon reservoirs and aquifers as discussed by the authors.

The nature and origin of off-fault damage surrounding strike-slip fault zones with a wide range of displacements: A field study from the Atacama fault system, northern Chile
TL;DR: In this paper, microfractures are a combination of open, healed, partially healed and fluid inclusion planes (FIPs) and show an exponential decrease in fracture density with perpendicular distance from the fault core.

Thickness-Displacement Relationships for Fault Zones
TL;DR: Fault zone thickness and displacement data have been used in recent studies to infer a global linear relationship between the two parameters in log-log space, and based on this empirical relationship, several models of fault growth have been proposed as mentioned in this paper.
Displacement-length scaling and fault linkage
Nancye H. Dawers,Mark H. Anders +1 more
TL;DR: The authors examined the displacement distribution along a ~7 km long normal fault system composed of overlapping segments, and numerous small splays and non-intersecting subparallel faults, and found that the absence of appreciable sedimentation or erosion associated with this young (
Analysis of faulting in three-dimensional strain field
TL;DR: In this paper, an elementary analysis of faulting in three-dimensional strain field is presented, which considers the deformation of an idealized model due to slip along sets of faults; the model is subjected to strain boundary conditions.
Geometry, kinematics and rates of deformation in a normal fault segment boundary, central Greece
N. C. Morewood,Gerald P. Roberts +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the geometry, kinematics and rates of deformation within a fault segment boundary between the ends of two major active normal fault segments have been investigated through examination of a faulted 126 ka marine terrace.
Multiple fault sets and three-dimensional strain: Theory and application
TL;DR: In this paper, the odd-axis model and the Reches model were applied to an array of orthorhombic faults in the northern San Rafael Swell of central Utah with excellent agreement between predicted and observed geometric and kinematic parameters.
