Geologic mapping and zircon (U-Th)/He thermochronology of the Avawatz Mountains, California; Implications for the eastern terminus of the Garlock fault
… of the Garlock fault, orwithin a transpressional restraining bend along the SDVF. Here we present detailed geologic mapping, structural analysis, and low-temperature thermochronology data to test these proposed structural and evolutionary models and to resolve the timing and kinematics of …

Evolution of Deformation Along Restraining Bends Based on Case Studies of Different Scale and Complexity
… crustal pop-ups, fault duplex structures, restraining bends, and flower structures. Depending on the plate velocity, plate obliquity, crustal rheology, length-scale, and climate, the evolution of faulting into translational and vertical strain can range in complexity and fault slip …

SEISMIC VELOCITY, RADIAL ANISOTROPY IN THE CRUST AND UPPER MANTLE OF NORTHEASTERN TIBETAN PLATEAU FROM SURFACE WAVE TOMOGRAPHY
… at ~120 km depth is imaged right beneath a restraining bend of the Kunlun fault and is probably caused by anomalously high temperature and partial melting resulted from localized asthenosphere upwelling after the delamination of a thick lithosphere root beneath the bend. In the second part …

Fault Behavior and Kinematic Evolution of the Eastern California Shear Zone
… the morphology, structure, and controls of restraining bend growth along the numerous faults of the ECSZ via field mapping and numerical deformational modeling. I found that the ECSZ restraining bends are small (kilometer-scale), exhibit high-angle, doubly fault-bound geometries with …
