  • FORMATION OF SEGMENTED NORMAL FAULTS: A 3-D PERSPECTIVE 
    Walsh J.J.; Bailey W.R.; Childs C.; Nicol A.; Bonson C.G. (2003)
    The interpretation of fault kinematics from geometric data is an essential step in developing an understanding of the growth of fault systems. Constraints on fault geometry are, however, often restricted to 2-D maps or ...
  • HANGING WALL FAULT KINEMATICS AND FOOTWALL COLLAPSE IN LISTRIC GROWTH FAULT SYSTEMS 
    Imber J.; Childs C.; Nell P.A.R.; Walsh J.J.; Hodgetts D.; Flint S. (2003)
    We describe the structure of a listric growth fault system from SE Asia, using high-resolution, 3-D seismic data. The fault system shows systematic changes in geometry and kinematics that are sympathetic with along-strike ...
  • RELAY ZONES BETWEEN MESOSCOPIC THRUST FAULTS IN LAYERED SEDIMENTARY SEQUENCES 
    Nicol A.; Gillespie P.A.; Childs C.; Walsh J.J. (2002)
    We examine the geometry, formation and destruction of relay zones in well-bedded sedimentary sequences containing thrust fault segments with maximum observed displacements of 0.64-8m. Contractional, extensional and neutral ...
  • THE GROWTH AND PROPAGATION OF SYNSEDIMENTARY FAULTS 
    Childs C.; Nicol A.; Walsh J.J.; Watterson J. (2003)
    Offset of each syn-fault horizon across a synsedimentary (i.e. growth) fault records the throw subsequent to its deposition, allowing successive growth stages of a fault to be determined. This technique has been applied ...
