鄂尔多斯盆地西缘发育南北向展布的逆冲推覆构造带,通过求其地层的缩短量和正确估计应变的分布,可以定量地揭示岩层的变形特征,从而对逆冲推覆构造形成的动力学机制做出客观的判断。由于小尺度褶皱和断层的发育,采用传统的平衡地质剖面方法计算其缩短量往往存在较大的误差,因此,采用非线性的方法--分形几何学求取逆冲推覆构造的缩短量,将剖面中某一地层界线作为二维平面中的一条复杂曲线,求其分维数D,进而计算构造变形的总缩短量。以鄂尔多斯盆地西缘北段桌子山地区AB地质剖面为例进行了应用研究。计算结果表明,桌子山AB地质剖面的缩短量为8 km,应变为22.2％,其中由小尺度褶皱和断层引起的的缩短量为1 km。 相似文献

The inversion of the Middle Proterozoic Belt sedimentary basin during Late Cretaceous thrusting in Montana produced a large eastwardly-convex salient, the southern boundary of which is a 200 km-long oblique to lateral ramp subtended by a detachment between the Belt rocks and Archean basement. A 10 km-long lateral ramp segment exposes the upper levels of the detachment where hanging wall Belt rocks have moved out over the Paleozoic and Mesozoic section. The hanging wall structure consists of a train of high amplitude, faulted, asymmetrical detachment folds. Initial west-east shortening produced layer parallel shortening fabrics and dominantly strike slip faulting followed by symmetrical detachment folding. “Lock-up” of movement on the detachment surface produced regional simple shear and caused the detachment folds to become asymmetrical and faulted. Folding of the detachment surface after lock-up modified the easternmost detachment folds further into a southeast-verging, overturned fold pair with a ramp-related fault along the base of the stretched mutual limb. 相似文献

The patterns of deformed early lineations (L1) over later folds (F2) can be classified into several morphological types depending on the nature of variation of L1 F2 over the folds. The field relations indicate that the folds under consideration are neither shear folds nor parallel folds modified by flattening. The lineation patterns are therefore interpreted in terms of an empirical model of simultaneous buckling and flattening in which it is assumed that (i) the central surface of the folded layer remains a sine curve in transverse profile, (ii) the ratio of rates of buckle shortening to homogeneous strain is proportional to sin 2a, with a as the dip angle and (iii) the progressive deformation is coaxial with the Z-axis of bulk strain parallel to the planar segments of the early folds. The model gives an insight into the relative importance of different physical factors which control the development of dissimilar lineation patterns. Not all lineation patterns are explicable by this simplified model. Thus complex patterns with variable L1 F2 along the fold axis may develop by a progressive rotation of the geometrically defined fold hinge through successive material lines. The theoretical results have been applied to interpret the lineation patterns in Central Rajasthan, India. It is concluded that L1 was initially very close to the E-ESE trending subhorizontal Z-axis of bulk deformation during F2-folding and that the X-axis was subhorizontal or gently plunging with a N-NNE trend. 相似文献

Dome and basin folds are structures with circular or slightly elongate outcrop patterns, which can form during single- and polyphase deformation in various tectonic settings. We used power-law viscous rock analogues to simulate single-phase dome-and-basin folding of rocks undergoing dislocation creep. The viscosity ratio between a single competent layer and incompetent matrix was 5, and the stress exponent of both materials was 7. The samples underwent layer-parallel shortening under bulk pure constriction.Increasing initial layer thickness resulted in a decrease in the number of domes and basins and an increase in amplitude, A, arc-length, L, wavelength, λ, and layer thickness, Hf. Samples deformed incrementally show progressive development of domes and basins until a strain of eY=Z = −30% is attained. During the dome-and-basin formation the layer thickened permanently, while A, L, and λ increased. A dominant wavelength was not attained. The normalized amplitude (A/λ) increased almost linearly reaching a maximum of 0.12 at eY=Z = −30%. During the last increment of shortening (eY=Z = −30 to −40%) the domes and basins did not further grow, but were overprinted by a second generation of non-cylindrical folds. Most of the geometrical parameters of the previously formed domes and basins behaved stable or decreased during this phase. The normalized arc-length (L/Hf) of domes and basins is significantly higher than that of 2D cylindrical folds. For this reason, the normalized arc length can probably be used to identify domes and basins in the field, even if these structures are not fully exposed in 3D. 相似文献

Detailed field-structural mapping of Neoproterozoic basement rocks exposed in the Wadi Yiba area, southern Arabian Shield, Saudi Arabia illustrates an important episode of late Neoproterozoic transpression in the southern part of the Arabian-Nubian Shield (ANS). This area is dominated by five main basement lithologies: gneisses, metavolcanics, Ablah Group (meta-clastic and marble units) and syn- and post-tectonic granitoids. These rocks were affected by three phases of deformation (D1–D3). D1 formed tight to isoclinal and intrafolial folds (F1), penetrative foliation (S1), and mineral lineation (L1), which resulted from early E-W (to ENE-WSW) shortening. D2 deformation overprinted D1 structures and was dominated by transpression and top-to-the-W (?WSW) thrusting as shortening progressed. Stretching lineation trajectories, S-C foliations, asymmetric shear fabrics and related mylonitic foliation, and flat-ramp and duplex geometries further indicate the inferred transport direction. The N- to NNW-orientation of both “in-sequence piggy-back thrusts” and axial planes of minor and major F2 thrust-related overturned folds also indicates the same D2 compressional stress trajectories. The Wadi Yiba Shear Zone (WYSZ) formed during D2 deformation. It is one of several N-S trending brittle-ductile Late Neoproterozoic shear zones in the southern part of the ANS. Shear sense indicators reveal that shearing during D2 regional-scale transpression was dextral and is consistent with the mega-scale sigmoidal patterns recognized on Landsat images. The shearing led to the formation of the WYSZ and consequent F2 shear zone-related folds, as well as other unmappable shear zones in the deformed rocks. Emplacement of the syn-tectonic granitoids is likely to have occurred during D2 transpression and occupied space created during thrust propagation. D1 and D2 structures are locally overprinted by mesoscopic- to macroscopic-scale D3 structures (F3 folds, and L3 crenulation lineations and kink bands). F3 folds are frequently open and have steep to subvertical axial planes and axes that plunge ENE to ESE. This deformation may reflect progressive convergence between East and West Gondwana. 相似文献

编制构造演化剖面可以对构造变形进行定量、半定量分析,对构造活动和演化研究具有重要意义。受伸展叠加走滑多期变形影响,复杂伸展盆地区断层、褶皱发育,为平衡剖面的恢复过程带来了一些困难和问题,影响了盆地演化分析的准确性。本文根据存在的问题,提出了一种利用Cdr（CorelDRAW）软件对复杂伸展盆地区变形进行恢复的新方法。该方法充分考虑变形、剥蚀和压实作用对恢复产生的影响,主要包括以下两个方面：1）地层恢复。如果浅部构造变形对深部影响不大,在恢复时采用层厚不变原则逐层进行回剥;若后期存在区域挤压作用,盆地整体发生构造反转形成褶皱,浅部每剥去一层,深部地层即相应消除该时期产生的应力叠加效应,此时需要对弯曲地层进行拉平处理。2）断层恢复。对生长断层而言,断层恢复就是消除上覆岩层产生的重力效应。对于深部早期生长断层而言,浅部地层对其只有压实作用而不影响其产状,此时应遵循深、浅部断层分开、独立恢复的原则。这种平衡剖面恢复的方法是基于地层及断层发育的构造部位、活动期次及其成因关系提出的,更加符合地质逻辑,能够更好地反演复杂伸展盆地区构造变形过程。运用该方法对渤海湾盆地济阳坳陷青西地区进行了平衡剖面反演,得出该区构造演化受控于伸展、构造反转和走滑影响。 相似文献

First phase folds F1 developed in polydeformed Ajabgarh Group rocks of Proterozoic age are studied using various geometrical methods of analysis
for compatibility of homogeneous strain in both class 1–3 pairs by correlatingt′
ga/α plots with existing curves for competent layers and matchingt
ga/α plots with the flattening curves for the incompetent layers.
F1 folds were initiated by the process of buckling but underwent [(λ2/λ1) = 0.2 to 0.7] for competent layers andR- values of 1.1 to 5 for incompetent layers. The varying flattening is also revealed by the geometry of folds. The apparent
buckle shortening of folds which ranges between 49 and 67 per cent with a majority of the folds having shortening values between
50% and 55% (exclusive of layer parallel strain) and inverse thickness method strain up to 50%. Besides flattening, the fold
geometry was also modified by the pressure solution. This is borne by the presence of dark seams rich in phyllosilicates and

Rocks of Upper Precambrian age near Adelaide show evidence of two or more phases of deformation. The first phase has resulted in concentric and similar folds with an associated slaty cleavage. Structures of this phase are overprinted by folds with associated crenulation cleavage. Minor occurrences of later kink folds are also observed. The hypothesis that the first phase folds overprint very large folds not observable in the field is examined. The observed variation in the attitude of first phase folds could also have resulted from large scale inhomogeneities of strain. 1 “Torrens Group” is used in place of the “Torrensian Series” of Mawson and Sprigg (1950) at the suggestion of Daily (1963) since the Torrensian Series has an unwarranted time significance. 2 The scale of folds follows that of Weiss (1957). Macroscopic‐folds larger than a single outcrop. Mesoscopic‐folds on the scale of a hand specimen or single outcrop. Microscopic‐folds on the scale of a thin section. 相似文献

Transmission electron microscopic study of synthetic CaAl2Ge2O8-feldspar revealed two types of antiphase domains: type “b”-antiphase domains with the displacement vector 1/2 [110] and type “c”-antiphase domains with the displacement vector 1/2 [111]. The “b”-domains were on the order of 0.1 μm in size, while the “c”-domains displayed wall to wall distances mostly between 0.1 and 1 μm. The formation of the two types of antiphase domains is due to reductions in translational symmetry associated with the phase transitions \(C\bar 1 \to I\bar 1 \to P\bar 1\) . The antiphase domain textures of CaAl2Ge2O8-feldspar are very similar to the textures found in natural and synthetic anorthite, CaAl2Si2O8. 相似文献

Centrifuge analogue modelling illustrates the progressive development of active folds in multilayers upon a ductile substrate
during layer-parallel shortening. Models simulate folding of a mechanically stratified sedimentary sequence upon migmatitic
gneisses in a large hot orogen, or upon a thick basal evaporite ± shale sequence in deeper levels of fold belts. The absence
of a weak low-viscosity and low-density layer at the interface promotes infolding of the cover sequence and ductile substrate,
whereas a planar upper surface to the basal ductile substrate is preserved when it is present. Whilst fold style, wavelength,
and deformation of the interface with the ductile substrate differ depending on whether a low-viscosity and low-density layer
is present at the base of the cover sequence, there is no marked systematic curvature of fold axes as seen in previous sandbox
models for fault-bend or fault propagation folding during bulk shortening. Bulk shortening of a layered sequence with relatively
thick individual layers above a ductile substrate promotes a regular and upright train of buckle folds, whereas thinner layers
promote a more irregular distribution of buckle folds with variable vergence, style, and amplitude. Buckle folds above a ductile
substrate progressively develop during bulk shortening from open and upright, to angular and tight, and may further develop
into cuspate structures above relatively weak horizons. Relatively thick weak horizons within the layered sequence during
bulk shortening interrupt regular fold patterns up structural section and allow out-of-phase folds to develop above and below
the weak horizon. 相似文献

Chamberlin (1910) was the first to quantitatively predict the shape and position of a basal detachment from detailed surface observations. His predicted detachment beneath the Appalachian Valley and Ridge fold-thrust belt of central Pennsylvania is substantially deeper and differs in geometry from the current interpretation. The modern profile by Faill and Nickelsen (1999) across the same area shows a much shallower, planar lower detachment and the presence of a duplex below the surface folds, a significant conceptual difference from the Chamberlin profile. Two assumptions prove to be critical in causing the discrepancies, the width of the segments used as the unit of analysis, and the assumption of constant bed length. The segmentation scheme led to an erroneous conjugate-fault detachment geometry. The depth discrepancy is primarily due to ignoring the layer-parallel strain. The duplex is of the coupled-roof style and not responsible for the differences, a result supported by an experimental model. We use the modern profile and the area–depth relationship to quantify the effects of uncertainty on profile geometry and estimates of orogenic shortening. Small differences in the assumptions (inference error) lead to significant differences in displacement, detachment location and layer-parallel strain. Our best area-balanced interpretation is a slightly modified version of the Faill and Nickelsen profile. 相似文献

Transpressional deformation has played an important role in the late Neoproterozoic evolution of the ArabianNubian Shield including the Central Eastern Desert of Egypt. The Ghadir Shear Belt is a 35 km-long, NW-oriented brittleductile shear zone that underwent overall sinistral transpression during the Late Neoproterozoic. Within this shear belt, strain is highly partitioned into shortening, oblique, extensional and strike-slip structures at multiple scales. Moreover, strain partitioning is heterogeneous along-strike giving rise to three distinct structural domains. In the East Ghadir and Ambaut shear belts, the strain is pure-shear dominated whereas the narrow sectors parallel to the shear walls in the West Ghadir Shear Zone are simple-shear dominated. These domains are comparable to splay-dominated and thrust-dominated strike-slip shear zones. The kinematic transition along the Ghadir shear belt is consistent with separate strike-slip and thrustsense shear zones. The earlier fabric(S1), is locally recognized in low strain areas and SW-ward thrusts. S2 is associated with a shallowly plunging stretching lineation(L2), and defines ～NW-SE major upright macroscopic folds in the East Ghadir shear belt. F2 folds are superimposed by ～NNW–SSE tight-minor and major F3 folds that are kinematically compatible with sinistral transpressional deformation along the West Ghadir Shear Zone and may represent strain partitioning during deformation. F2 and F3 folds are superimposed by ENE–WSW gentle F4 folds in the Ambaut shear belt. The sub-parallelism of F3 and F4 fold axes with the shear zones may have resulted from strain partitioning associated with simple shear deformation along narrow mylonite zones and pure shear-dominant deformation in fold zones. Dextral ENEstriking shear zones were subsequently active at ca. 595 Ma, coeval with sinistral shearing along NW-to NNW-striking shear zones. The occurrence of upright folds and folds with vertical axes suggests that transpression plays a significant role in the tectonic evolution of the Ghadir shear belt. Oblique convergence may have been provoked by the buckling of the Hafafit gneiss-cored domes and relative rotations between its segments. Upright folds, fold with vertical axes and sinistral strike-slip shear zones developed in response to strain partitioning. The West Ghadir Shear Zone contains thrusts and strikeslip shear zones that resulted from lateral escape tectonics associated with lateral imbrication and transpression in response to oblique squeezing of the Arabian-Nubian Shield during agglutination of East and West Gondwana. 相似文献

The moderately metamorphosed and deformed rocks exposed in the Hampden Synform, Eastern Fold Belt, in the Mt Isa terrane, underwent complex multiple deformations during the early Mesoproterozoic Isan Orogeny (ca 1590–1500 Ma). The earliest deformation elements preserved in the Hampden Synform are first‐generation tight to isoclinal folds and an associated axial‐planar slaty cleavage. Preservation of recumbent first‐generation folds in the hinge zones of second‐generation folds, and the approximately northeast‐southwest orientation of restored L1 0 intersection lineation suggest recumbent folding occurred during east‐west to northwest‐southeast shortening. First‐generation folds are refolded by north‐south‐oriented upright non‐cylindrical tight to isoclinal second‐generation folds. A differentiated axial‐planar cleavage to the second‐generation fold is the dominant fabric in the study area. This fabric crenulates an earlier fabric in the hinge zones of second‐generation folds, but forms a composite cleavage on the fold limbs. Two weakly developed steeply dipping crenulation cleavages overprint the dominant composite cleavage at a relatively high angle (>45°). These deformations appear to have had little regional effect. The composite cleavage is also overprinted by a subhorizontal crenulation cleavage inferred to have developed during vertical shortening associated with late‐orogenic pluton emplacement. We interpret the sequence of deformation events in the Hampden Synform to reflect the progression from thin‐skinned crustal shortening during the development of first‐generation structures to thick‐skinned crustal shortening during subsequent events. The Hampden Synform is interpreted to occur within a progressively deformed thrust slice located in the hangingwall of the Overhang Shear. 相似文献

An association of westerly verging asymmetric folds, easterly dipping cleavages and contractional faults control the pattern and intensity of structures at different scales in the southern Nallamalai fold–fault belt, Cuddapah district of Andhra Pradesh, Southern India. Variation in structural geometry is manifested across the section by the occurrence of relatively low amplitude folds, sometimes only a monocline and by the near absence of contractional faults in the WSW, but tight to isoclinal folds with frequent fold–fault interactions through the central areas towards ENE.The relationships of structural elements in terms of orientation, style, sense of movement and general vergence indicate their development under a progressive contractional deformation. The structures are interpreted to result from a combination of bulk inhomogeneous shortening across the belt and a top-to-west, variable simple shear. Localized developments of crenulation cleavage, rotation of cleavage in the shorter limbs of some mesoscale asymmetric folds and general variation of structural elements in morphology and associations across the belt, indicate partitioning of deformation and a varying degree of non-coaxiality in discrete domains of the bulk deformation. 相似文献

冰川槽谷作为冰川作用区分布最典型的冰川地貌之一,对其形态特征及影响因素的研究,有助于揭示冰川发育的动力学过程。基于V指数模型及MATLAB半自动提取方法,分析并探讨了他念他翁山中段冰川槽谷形态发育特征及造成槽谷形态差异的影响因素。结果表明：研究区共发育206条冰川槽谷,大多为“U”形或偏“U”形,长4.5~26 km之间,平均宽度1.8 km,深200~500 m,海拔高度介于5 730~3 274 m。槽谷形态横向分布规律：V指数多为0.2~0.3,北东向发育V指数大于0.3的谷地多于西南向,说明东坡槽谷侵蚀程度强于西坡。V指数沿槽谷纵向主要有两种变化趋势：V指数增大,冰川槽谷横剖面“U”形发育特点逐渐增强;V指数减小,冰川槽谷横剖面“U”形发育特点减弱。研究区冰川槽谷发育以侧蚀为主,形态的差异性是冰川自身特性、冰川作用区地形与基岩岩性等多种因素共同作用的结果。其中,冰川作用区的平均坡度、平均地形起伏度与古冰川作用区面积是造成这种分布差异的主要因素。 相似文献

The progressive development of folds by buckling in single isolated viscous layers compressed parallel to the layering and embedded in a less viscous host is examined in several ways; by use of experiments, an analogue model to simulate simultaneous buckling and flattening and by an application of finite-element analysis.The appearance of folds with a characteristic wavelength in an initially flat layer occurs in the experiments for viscosity ratios (μlayer/μhost = μ1/μ2) of between 11 and 100; progressive fold development after the initial folds have appeared is similar in the experiments and in the finite-element models. Except for the finite-element model for μ1/μ2 = 1,000 layer-parallel shortening occurs in the early stages of folding and a stage is reached where little further changes in arc length occur. The amount of layer-parallel shortening increases with decreasing viscosity contrast, and becomes relatively unimportant after the folds have attained limb dips of about 15°–25°.Thickness variations with dip are only significant here for the finite-element model with μ1/μ2 = 10, and in experiments for μ1/μ2 = 5 where the layer is initially in the form of a moderate-amplitude sine wave. The variations range from a parallel to a near-similar fold geometry, and in general depend on the viscosity contrast, the degree of shortening and the initial wavelength/thickness ratio. They are very similar to the variations predicted by the analogue model of combined buckling and flattening. The difference between the thickness/dip variations in a fold produced by buckling at low viscosity contrast and one produced by flattening a parallel fold is marked at high limb dips and very slight at low limb dips.Many natural folds in isolated rock layers or veins show thickness/dip relationships expected for a flattened parallel fold, and some show relationships expected for buckling at low viscosity contrasts. Studies of the wavelength/thickness ratios in natural folds have suggested that competence contrast is often low. Many folds in isolated rock layers or veins whose geometry may vary between parallel and almost similar, and may be indistinguishable from those of flattened parallel folds, have probably developed by a process of buckling at low viscosity contrasts. 相似文献

Detailed micro-meso to macroscopic structural analyses reveal two deformation phases in the western limb of the Hazara-Kashmir Syntaxis(HKS). Bulk top to NW shearing transformed initially symmetrical NNE-SSW trending meso to macroscopic folds from asymmetric to overturned ones without changing their trend. Sigmoidal en-echelon tension gashes developed during this deformation,that were oblique to bedding parallel worm burrows and bedding planes themselves. Strain analyses of deformed elliptical ooids using the R_f/φ method constrain the internal strain patterns of the NNE-SSW structures. The principal stretching axis(S_3) defined by deformed elliptical ooids is oriented N27°E at right angles to WNW-ESE shortening. The deformed elliptical ooids in sub-vertical bedding vertical planes contain ooids that plunge ~70° SE due to NW-directed tectonic transport. Finite strain ratios are1.45(R_(xy)) parallel to bedding plane and 1.46(R_(yz)) for the vertical plane. From these 2D strain values, we derive an oblate strain ellipsoidal in 3D using the Flinn and Hsu/Nadai techniques. Strains calculated from deformed elliptical ooids average-18.10% parallel to bedding and-18.47% in the vertical plane.However, a balanced cross-section through the study area indicates a minimum of~-28% shortening.Consequently, regional shortening was only partially accommodated by internal deformation. 相似文献

Low-grade metamorphic rocks of Paleozoic–Mesozoic age to the north of Konya, consist of two different groups. The Silurian–Lower Permian Sizma Group is composed of reefal complex metacarbonates at the base, and flyschoid metaclastics at the top. Metaigneous rocks of various compositions occur as dykes, sills, and lava flows within this group. The ?Upper Permian–Mesozoic age Ardicli Group unconformably overlies the Sizma Group and is composed of, from bottom to top, coarse metaclastics, a metaclastic–metacarbonate alternation, a thick sequence of metacarbonate, and alternating units of metachert, metacarbonates and metaclastics. Although pre-Alpine overthrusts can be recognized in the Sizma Group, intense Alpine deformation has overprinted and obliterated earlier structures. Both the Sizma and Ardicli Groups were deformed, and metamorphosed during the Alpine orogeny. Within the study area evidence for four phases of deformation and folding is found. The first phase of deformation resulted in the major Ertugrul Syncline, overturned tight to isoclinal and minor folding, and penetrative axial planar cleavage developed during the Alpine crustal shortening at the peak of metamorphism. Depending on rock type, syntectonic crystallization, rotation, and flattening of grains and pressure solution were the main deformation mechanisms. During the F2-phase, continued crustal shortening produced coaxial Type-3 refolded folds, which can generally be observed in outcrop with associated crenulation cleavage (S2). Refolding of earlier folds by the noncoaxial F3-folding event generated Type-2 interference patterns and the major Meydan Synform which is the largest map-scale structure within the study area. Phase 3 structures also include crenulation cleavage (S3) and conjugate kink folds. Further shortening during phase 4 deformation also resulted in crenulation cleavage and conjugate kink folds. According to thin section observations, phases 2–4 crenulation cleavages are mainly the result of microfolding with pressure solution and mineral growth. 相似文献

The NaF effect on microlite solubility at 800°C and 170, 200, and 230 MPa is studied experimentally. The immiscibility boundaries and compositions of fluid phases L1 and L2 are defined in the system NaF–H2O at 800°C. It is established that microlite solubility increase in the L1 phase, as compared with a homogeneous solution, is explained by the appearance in the L1 phase of “free” HF in an amount of 0.025 ± 0.003 mol kg–1 H2O. The model of “acidification” L1 and “alkalizing” L2 is supposed. 相似文献
