Ductile Shear

Mukherjee, Soumyajit

Pages: 1 –29

[S-C fabrics and sheared clasts are the commonest ductile shear sense indicators in meso-scale. Sigmoid-shaped or sigma structures of clasts are most common. On the other hand, delta structures are rather rare. Secondary ductile shears indicate a pure shear component, besides simple shear, within...

Folds

Mukherjee, Soumyajit

Pages: 31 –49

[Ductile shear related folds have been studied by many classified folds in relation to shear of two main types: (1) those with low inter-limb angles and curved hinge lines formed before shear; and (2) flow perturbed syn-shear overturned intrafolial folds.]

Veins and Near Symmetric Clasts

Mukherjee, Soumyajit

Pages: 51 –69

[Near symmetric clasts of quartz and feldspar have classically been described as augens.]
Available

Boudins

Mukherjee, Soumyajit

Pages: 71 –85

[Boudins are produced by local brittle–ductile extension in rocks. This collection presents pinch and swells.]
Available

Brittle Shear

Mukherjee, Soumyajit

Pages: 87 –124

[This chapter presents morphologic variations of P- and Y-planes of brittle shear. The inclination of P-planes, usually sigmoid-shaped, is a reliable indicator of brittle shear sense.]
