Increased interest in the two-and three-dimensional geometries and development of faults
and other types of fractures in rock has led to an increasingly bewildering terminology. Here …

The structure, frictional properties and permeability of faults within carbonate rocks exhibit a
dynamic interplay that controls both seismicity and the exchange of fluid between different …

Damage zones have previously been classified in terms of their positions at fault tips, walls
or areas of linkage, with the latter being described in terms of sub-parallel and …

Fracture systems comprise many fractures that may be grouped into sets based on their
orientation, type and relative age. The fractures are often arranged in a network that involves …

Damage zones of different fault types are investigated in siliciclastics (Utah, USA),
carbonates (Majella Mountain, Italy) and metamorphic rocks (western Norway). The study …

Defining the fracture network and the active fluid pathways are fundamental to
characterizing a fractured reservoir. With this goal, we chose the Saint Pierre Bois quarry …

Structural complexity along faults (eg, relay zones, fault intersections and jogs) exert strong
controls on fluid flow, yet few attempts have been made to quantify and visualise such …

We performed a systematic investigation of mechanical compaction, strain localization, and
permeability in Leitha limestone. This carbonate from the area of Vienna (Austria) occurs …

We performed a systematic investigation of mechanical compaction and strain localization in
Saint‐Maximin limestone, a quartz‐rich, high‐porosity (37%) limestone from France. Our …

Using outcrop-based examples, we investigate the topological and graph characteristics of
various fault damage zones in carbonate rocks on Malta. The damage zone fracture …
