ESTIMATING BASAL FRICTION IN ACCRETIONARY WEDGES FROM THE GEOMETRY AND SPACING OF FRONTAL FAULTS

Schott B.; Koyi H.A. (2001)

Elastic theory applied to the deformation in accretionary wedges is used to calculate the condition for slip along an active frontal fault and the basal decollement. The equations for calculating the stresses can be solved ...
THE EFFECT OF DECOLLEMENT DIP ON GEOMETRY AND KINEMATICS OF MODEL ACCRETIONARY WEDGES

Koyi H.A.; Vendeville B.C. (2003)

We conducted a series of sand-box models shortened asymmetrically above a frictional-plastic decollement to study the influence of amount and sense of the decollement dip on the geometry and kinematics of accretionary ...
