Evolution of stress and fault patterns in oblique rift systems: 3‐D numerical lithospheric‐scale experiments from rift to breakup
S Brune - Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Rifting involves complex normal faulting that is controlled by extension direction, reactivation
of prerift structures, sedimentation, and dyke dynamics. The relative impact of these factors …
