The effects of mechanical stratigraphy on ramp spacing and ramp initiation in foreland fold and thrust belts /

This study investigates the effect of mechanical stratigraphy, a fundamental characteristic of many fold and thrust belts, on ramp initiation and spacing. The causes for the sequential decrease in ramp spacing observed in some foreland fold and thrusts are examined. We present a finite element wed...
