Abstract: | The folds generally initiate at several discrete points along a layer or multilayer undergoing compressional forces. These
compressional forces often lead to rotation of fold segments and in all such regimes, folds are strongly asymmetrical and
are in complete agreement with the direction in which the force is applied and also with the related thrust sheet movement.
This paper illustrates the progressive change in fold geometry with increasing compression and ductile shearing using natural
example as studied in the Almora Crystalline Zone (ACZ). |
