Shear in hangingwall can affect limb width and fold geometry
Fault-Propagation Folds
Kuwana Anticline
Uemachi Upland/Fold
Trishear fault propagation fold from Osaka Basin, Japan
Note flattening of reflectors (upward) in forelimb and growth triangle
Uemachi ultra high resolution profile
Note resolution of data (some reflectors at 1 m spacing)
Reflectors steepen downward
Angular unconformity from Holocene sea level highstand Depth in

Uemachi S-wave profile + line tracing
Note flexural slip faults that terminate as parasitic folds beneath unconformity
Some of this strain may postdate deposition of younger strata
Backfilling occurs above flexural slip folds
Osaka Bay
Five profiles
used in our
analysis
Uplift decreases towards end of fold (what we expect for a single fault or fold)
1! 2!
3! 4!

Fault Bend folding: Pregrowth strata
Bends in fault produce bending in hangingwall,
marked by active axial surfaces
n Fault Bend folding: Pregrowth strata
Fault Bend folding: Limbs widen self similarly
Growth triangle records progressively more slip with time
Inactive axial surfaces once at axial surfaces,
now translated above thrust
Fault Bend folding: Limbs widen self similarly
Growth triangle records progressively less slip
Post tectonic deposition caps growth triangles
