Buckle folds are common traps for hydrocarbon in several contractional provinces. Buckle folds form where stratified sequences rest a top salt or some other utterly weak rock as a decollemet zone in units with high competency contrasts by a compressive stress which acted along the length of the rock layers. An important parameter affecting buckle folding of a competent zone above a mobile decol...

     Lali sub-surface structure, with a NW-SE Zagros trending is located in Dezful Embayment. To determine the folding mechanism, structural geometric parameters including limbs dip, amplitude, wavelength, and crestal length were determined in four stages during deformation. In order to investigate the lateral folding mechanism, these geometric parameters were analyzed in three parts in the Lal...

the khushab anticline is located in the zagros fold-thrust belt in the lurestan. this anticline is affected by the balarud fault zone, which is a part of mountain front fault between the lurestan and dezful embayment zones. based on the measurement of the elements of fold style, this anticline is analyzed. according to these measurements, this anticline is a noncylindrical, asymmetrical and dis...

Abstract. At laboratory timescales, rock salt samples with different composition and microstructure show variance in steady-state creep rates, but it is not known if how this manifested at low strain rates corresponding deviatoric stresses. Here, we aim to quantify from the analysis of multilayer folds that developed over geological timescale Ocnele Mari mine Romania. The formation composed 90 ...

The Khushab anticline is located in the Zagros fold-thrust belt in the Lurestan. This anticline is affected by the Balarud fault zone, which is a part of Mountain Front Fault between the Lurestan and Dezful Embayment zones. Based on the measurement of the elements of fold style, this anticline is analyzed. According to these measurements, this anticline is a noncylindrical, asymmetrical and dis...

Field observations from Gonto La (southern Tibet), a pass through the high Himalaya, reveal a continuous, planar, ~l&N-dipping detachment horizon (the Gonto La detachment). The detachment juxtaposes Tethyan dark slates over a footwall of extensive leucogranite of the Khula Kangri pluton, intruded into an injection complex layer regarded as an early Southern Tibet Detachment System (STDS) horizo...
