Controls on the diversity of the fault slip styles at the brittle-ductile transition: examples from the Cape Fold Belt, Nuy Valley, South Africa
Crustal deformation models have a first-order rheological division, with pressure-dependent brittle deformation predominating at shallow depths, and temperature-dependent viscous deformation occurring in the deeper levels of the crust. The brittle-ductile transition zone separates these two regimes,...
