Analogue modelling of basin inversion: a review and future perspectives
Basin inversion involves the reversal of subsidence in a basin due to compressional tectonic
forces, leading to uplift of the basin's sedimentary infill. A thorough understanding of basin …

Impact of an interbedded viscous décollement on the structural and kinematic coupling in fold-and-thrust belts: Insights from analogue modeling
Fold-and-thrust belts (FTBs) can be segmented both across and along strike because of
various factors including tectonic and stratigraphic inheritance. In this study, we investigated …
