Normal fault relay structures form at all scales as faults interact or step out of their own plane
during growth, and their successive formation and destruction represent the most efficient …

Recent advances are reviewed in the understanding of the geometry and development of
steep, planar normal faults with up to hundreds of meters throw in multilayered sedimentary …

Detailed kinematic analysis of a large (1800 m maximum displacement) reactivated normal
fault in the Taranaki Basin, New Zealand, has been conducted using high quality 3D seismic …

There is a need for computational models capable of predicting meltwater-assisted crevasse
growth in glacial ice. Mass loss from glaciers and ice sheets is the largest contributor to sea …

We introduce a class of models based on near crack tip degradation of materials that can
account for fracture growth under cyclic loads below the Griffith threshold. We incorporate …

A review of field observations reveals that faults in the upper crust initiate in one of three
styles: linkage of pre-existing structures, linkage of precursory structures, or by localization of …

A detailed field study of 39 centimetre-to metre-scale relay ramps from two outcrops was
performed to investigate the development of a linkage criterion for segmented normal faults …

Fascinating pattern formation by quasi-static crack growth in thin films has received
increasing interest in both interdisciplinary science and engineering applications. The paper …

The Tyrrhenian margin of central Italy has undergone Plio‐Quaternary extension,
develo** NW‐SE normal faults and NE‐SW faults. The NE‐SW faults decrease in …

Mineralisation associated with fault, vein and shear zone systems can be related to
processes that operated when those systems were active. Despite the complexity of …
