Progress on strike-slip fault research and its significance
-
Abstract
Since the emergence of the strike-slip fault concept, the importance of strike-slip fault in geological science research has gradually been realized. Understandings of strike-slip faults in terms of geometry, kinematics, dynamics and tectonic significance have accelerated the study on strike-slip fault. However, there are still some limitations in its classification and mechanism analysis. Based on the literature review of strike-slip fault, the principle, concept and related terms are summarized, then the displacement characteristics, identification marks, mechanical mechanism, strike-slip derived or associated structures, characteristics of strike-slip basins, classification and examples of strike-slip faults are analyzed. Combined with the mechanical mechanism of strike-slip fault, a new classification method of strike-slip fault is proposed, and a brief analysis of typical faults is made using the new classification method, such as the San Andreas fault on the west coast of the United States, the Alpine fault in New Zealand, the Tanlu fault and the Altyn Tagh fault in China.
