Abstract The North Atlantic, extending from the Charlie Gibbs Fracture Zone to the north
Norway-Greenland-Svalbard margins, is regarded as both a classic case of structural …

Complexly deformed rocks that exhibit refolded folds and overprinting planar fabrics are
often interpreted as the result of polyphase deformation and described in a scheme of …

The connectivity of a fracture network depends on both its geometry and topology, which
may be characterized in terms of the types of nodes and branches in the system. A number …

Our field studies emphasizing brittle shear P-and Y-planes along the margins of the Barmer
basin (Rajasthan, India) support its two-phase (NW-SE, followed by NE-SW) extension …

Fluid flow in the subsurface is fundamental in a variety of geological processes including
volcanism, metamorphism, and mineral dissolution and precipitation. It is also of economic …

Two-dimensional exposures of fracture networks can be represented as large planar graphs
that comprise a series of branches (B) representing the fracture traces and nodes (N) …

Pre-existing structures in the crust such as shear zones, faults, and mobile belts are known
to exert a significant control on the structural evolution of continental rifts. However, the …

Reactivation of pre‐existing intra‐basement structures can influence the evolution of rift
basins, yet the detailed kinematic relationship between these structures and overlying rift …

Abstract The Santos Basin, located on the southeastern margin of Brazil, hosts giant
hydrocarbon reserves of the pre-salt section that correspond to the carbonate sequences …

Using outcrop-based examples, we investigate the topological and graph characteristics of
various fault damage zones in carbonate rocks on Malta. The damage zone fracture …
