Тectonics of Strike-Slip Restraining and Releasing Bends

London: Geological Society, Special Publications, 2007. 483 р.= Можно сказать, что это — главное на данный момент в западной литературе (по крайней мере на 2007 г.) обобщение по синсдвиговым вторичным полям напряжений (a.k.a. дуплексы и проч.), их геометрии и динамике, равно как и их взаимодействию с синхронными рудно-магматическими системами.
Книга может быть рекомендована самому широкому кругу геологов-структурщиков, интересующихся закономерностями и особенностями строения и эволюции земной коры.

Печать — качественная.= Restraining and releasing bends are common, but enigmatic features of strike-slip fault systems occurring in all crustal environments and at regional to microscopic scales of observation. Regionalscale restraining bends are sites of mountain building, transpressional deformation and basement exhumation, whereas releasing bends are sites of topographic subsidence, transtensional deformation, basin sedimentation and possible volcanism and economic mineralization. Because restraining and releasing bends often occur as singular self-contained domains of complex deformation, they are appealing natural laboratories for Earth scientists to study fault processes, earthquake seismology, active faulting and sedimentation, fault and fluid-flow relationships, links between tectonics and topography, tectonic and erosional controls on exhumation, and tectonic geomorphology.
This volume addresses the tectonic complexity and diversity of strike-slip restraining and releasing
bends with 18 contributions divided into four thematic sections: (1) a topical review of fault bends and their global distribution; (2) bends, sedimentary basins and earthquake hazards; (3) restraining bends, transpressional deformation and basement controls on development; (4) releasing bends, transtensional deformation and fluid flow.
