Surface restoration as a means to characterize transverse fault slip uncertainty
Guillaume Caumon and Pierre Muron. ( 2006 )
in: Proc. 26th Gocad Meeting, Nancy
Abstract
There are various methods to restore horizon surfaces, as in cross-section balancing, they may correspond to the simple
shear deformation mode or to the flexural slip mode. The first one preserves the distances in a given direction, the
second one the length and angle on the bedding surface, i.e. the areas. Based on field examples, we will discuss the
dilatation and internal strain directions that could be deduced for these restorations and compare them to fracture data
sets.
