The distributions of slip rate and ductile deformation in a strike- slip shear zone
A simple mechanical model and dimensional analysis are used to derive a scaling law for the partitioning between slip rate on a strike-slip fault and distributed deformation in the far-field. The depth of the fault, the distributions of stress, strain rate and slip rate are solved for a given far-field force or displacement in a 2-D medium with a linear temperature-dependent viscous rheology. A...
متن کاملShear strain concentration mechanism in the lower crust below an intraplate strike-slip fault based on rheological laws of rocks
We conduct a two-dimensional numerical experiment on the lower crust under an intraplate strike-slip fault based on laboratory-derived power-law rheologies considering the effects of grain size and water. To understand the effects of far-field loading and material properties on the deformation of the lower crust on a geological time scale, we assume steady fault sliding on the fault in the uppe...

متن کاملA note on 2-D lithospheric deformation due to a blind strike-slip fault
Analytical solution for the problem of a surface-breaking long strike-slip fault in an elastic layer overlying an elastic half-space is well known. The purpose of this note is to obtain the corresponding solution for a blind fault. Since the solution is valid for arbitrary values of the fault-depth and the dip angle, the effects of these two important fault parameters can be studied numerically...
متن کاملSurface deformation due to a strike-slip fault in an elastic gravitational layer overlying
We extend a technique previously used to model surface displacements resulting from thrust faulting in an elastic-gravitational l yer over a viscoelastic-gravitational h f-space to the case of strike-slip faulting. The method involves the calculation of the Green's functions for a strike-slip point source contained in an elastic-gravitational layer over a viscoelastic-gravitational half-space. ...
