The mechanical paradox of low-angle normal faults: Current understanding and open questions
C Collettini - Tectonophysics, 2011 - Elsevier
Low-angle normal faults, LANF,(dip< 30°) have been proposed as key-structures for
accommodating crustal extension. In contrast, frictional fault reactivation theory predicts that …
