McClay et al.
From Schreurs
The movie on the right is a digitized version of a physical experiment involving the shortening of a sand-box. It shows the development of reverse faults and the progressive stacking of several units.
A similar experiment from McClay’s team.
A numerical experiment from Beaumont’s group, illustrating the development of a thrust.
