Structural Interpretation in Contractional Settings
Instructor: Dr. Facundo Fuentes This course provides an integrated and advanced analysis of fold-and-thrust belts and thrust systems, addressing their architecture, evolution, and tectonic significance in convergent margins, collisional systems, and gravitational contexts. Based on rigorous geometric principles—fault–fold relationships, imbricate and duplex systems, triangle zones, detachment folds, and major thrust faults—it develops a comprehensive understanding…
