Do cataclastic deformation bands form parallel to lines of no finite elongation (LNFE) or zero extension directions? (2012)
Journal Article
Imber, J., Perry, T., Jones, R., & Wightman, R. (2012). Do cataclastic deformation bands form parallel to lines of no finite elongation (LNFE) or zero extension directions?. Journal of Structural Geology, 45, 158-172. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsg.2012.09.004

Conjugate cataclastic deformation bands cut unconsolidated sand and gravel at McKinleyville, California, and dip shallowly towards the north-northeast and south-southwest. The acute dihedral angle between the two sets of deformation bands is 47° and...

The maximum, minimum, Gaussian, and mean curvatures of a folded bedding surface are calculated from a high resolution data set. These data were collected using real-time kinematic (RTK) GPS and processed using commercially available software. The cur...

Tectonics, 25(4), https://doi.org/10.1029/2005tc001895

An integrated onshore-offshore study involving regional to outcrop-scale fault analysis is used to develop a self-consistent structural model for transtension along the Lofoten Ridge. The Lofoten-Vesterålen archipelago (LVA) is a segmented basement h...

Faults in brittle rock are shear fractures formed through the interaction and coalescence of many tensile microcracks1,2,3. The geometry of these microcracks and their surrounding elastic stress fields control the orientation of the final shear fract...
