Thrust Fault Geometry

Thrust Fault Geometry is a structural geological construct that characterizes the three-dimensional configuration and spatial arrangement of thrust faults within a thrust belt, distinguishing it from related tectonic features by its specific kinematic and geometric attributes such as ramp-flat architecture, fault dip angles, and displacement patterns.
