ABSTRAK Keberadaan struktur geologi sering dikaitkan dengan bencana tanah longsor dan gempa bumi. Daerah Kalibening merupakan lokasi yang cukup menarik untuk dilakukan penelitian terkait hal tersebut. Daerah ini tersusun atas satuan batuan berumur Pleistosen dan Resen. Berdasarkan stratigrafinya, batuan tersebut terpotong oleh struktur sesar. Hal ini berarti menjadikan sesar di daerah tersebut termasuk dalam kategori sesar aktif. Morfologi yang tinggi dengan suatu cekungan di tengahnya mengindikasikan bahwa daerah tersebut pembentukannya dipengaruhi oleh sesar. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan pola struktur geologi yang mengontrol daerah penelitian. Untuk menentukan pola struktur geologi, digunakan metode pemetaan struktur Fault Fracture Density (FFD) yang dikombinasikan dengan peta residual anomali Bouguer dan peta kelurusan hillshade. Secara umum, hal yang paling penting dalam mempelajari struktur geologi adalah geometri elemen struktur. Model konseptual struktur geologi selanjutnya digunakan untuk menganalisis potensi likuefaksi yang ada pada daerah penelitian. Interpretasi struktur menunjukkan adanya sesar mendatar dekstral yang diikuti sesar-sesar penyerta dan cekungan pull-apart yang diduga merupakan hasil pensesaran normal yang timbul dari mekanisme strike-slip. Sesar mendatar dekstral ini menghasilkan cekungan yang terisi oleh sedimen lepas yang rentan mengalami likuefaksi jika terjadi gempa bumi dan gerakan tanah. Kajian ini menyimpulkan bahwa daerah Kalibening rentan terjadi likuefaksi karena adanya pergerakan sesar mendatar dekstral, sedimen lepas yang mendominasi daerah penelitian, dan muka air tanah yang dangkal. ABSTRACT The existence of geological structures is often associated with landslides and earthquakes. The Kalibening area is an interesting location for research on that purpose. This area is composed of Pleistocene and Recent rocks units. Based on its stratigraphy, the rocks in the area are truncated by fault structure. It means that the fault in the area is categorized as an active fault. The high morphology and a basin existence on its center indicate that the area formation was controlled by faults. The research is carried out to determine the trend of the geological structures that control the study area. To determine the trend of the geological structure, a structural mapping method of Fault Fracture Density (FFD) map combined with the Bouguer anomaly residual map and hillshade lineaments map is used. In general, the most important thing in the study of structural geology is the geometry of the structural elements. The conceptual model of geological structures is subsequently used to analyze the liquefaction potential of the study area. The interpretation of the structures shows the existence of dextral strike-slip fault followed by companion faults and pull-apart basin that is inferred as the result of normal faulting in the strike-slip mechanism. The dextral strike-slip fault produces a basin filled with loose sediment that is prone to liquefaction in the event of an earthquake and ground motion. This study concludes that the Kalibening area is prone to liquefaction due to the existence of the movement of dextral strike-slip fault, loose sediments that dominate the study area, and shallow groundwater table.

Abstract. In November 2010, a large sinkhole opened up in the urban area of Schmalkalden, Germany. To determine the key factors which benefited the development of this collapse structure and therefore the subrosion, we carried out several shear wave reflection seismic profiles around the sinkhole. In the seismic sections we see evidence of the Mesozoic tectonic movement, in the form of a NW–SE striking, dextral strike-slip fault, known as the Heßleser Fault, which faulted and fractured the subsurface below the town. The strike-slip faulting created a zone of small blocks (

Abstract. We investigated the eastern corner of northeastern Italy, where the NW-SE trending dextral strike-slip fault systems of western Slovenia intersects the south-verging fold and thrust belt of the eastern Southern Alps . The area suffered the largest earthquakes of the region, among which are the 1511 (Mw 6.3) event and the two major shocks of the 1976 seismic sequence, with Mw = 6.4 and 6.1 respectively. The Colle Villano thrust and the Borgo Faris-Cividale strike-slip fault have been first analyzed by interpreting industrial seismic lines and then by performing morpho-tectonic and paleoseismological analyses. These different datasets indicate that the two structures define an active, coherent transpressive fault system that activated twice in the past two millennia, with the last event occurring around the 15th–17th century. The chronological information, and the location of the investigated fault system suggest its activation during the 1511 earthquake.

The aim of the present research is to provide the base line details of the NNW-SSE trending Raintoli fault (RF) which is running parallel to the North Almora Thrust (NAT) along the Saryu valley from Seraghat-Naichun to Seri in the central sector of the Uttarakhand Himalaya, India. The RF is characterized as dextral strike slip fault and behaves as a ductile shear zone within the zone of NAT. The dextral sense of shear movement of RF is delineated by the fabric of the shear zone rocks including microscopically observed indicators such as sigma and delta porphyroclasts, quartz c-axis, and the field structural data. Additionally, in the quaternary period the dextral strike slip fault is reactivated with oblique slip component as characterized by various geomorphic indicators, for example, triangular facets, abandoned river channels, unpaired fluvial terraces, and V-shaped valleys with recurrent seismicity. Further, the morphometric parameters including Valley Floor Width to Valley Height (Vf), asymmetry factor (AF), and gradient index (GI) further prove active nature of RF as suggested by low values of hypsometric integration, V-shaped valley, higher gradient index, and tilting of Saryu basin.

Tampusu Mountain (± 1500 m above sea level) is located between two famous geological tourism areas in North Sulawesi, namely Lake Linow and Lake Tondano. The position of Mount Tampusu, as well as the presence of geothermal manifestations in the surrounding area is interesting to study its geological aspects both on the surface and below the surface. This study aims to determine the existence of surface geological structures based on line density, and also to determine the presence and direction of subsurface geological structures based on gravity anomaly data in Tampusu Volcanic area. The fault and fracture density method is used to map the surface geological structure, while the gravity method is used to obtain information about the geological structure of the Tampusu volcanic area between the crater of Lake Linow and the Lake Tondano caldera. The existence of a fault is known to be west of the Lake Tondano caldera which is an extension from east to southeast of the Linow Lake crater. There is a relationship between the distribution map of the bouguer anomaly value and the map of lineament density along the Lake Linow crater to Lake Tondano caldera.

Abstract. Kashmir Basin in NW Himalaya is considered a Neogene-Quatermary piggyback basin that was formed as result of the continent-continent collision of Indian and Eurasian plates. This model however is recently challenged by a pull-apart basin model, which argues that a major dextral strike-slip fault through Kashmir basin is responsible for its formation. And here it is demonstrated that the new tectonic model is structurally problematic, and conflicts with the geomorphology, geology, and tectonic setting of Kashmir basin. It also conflicts, and contradicts with the various structural features associated with a typical dextral strike-slip fault system where it shows that such a major structure cannot pass through the middle of the basin. It is demonstrated that such a structure is structurally, and kinematically impossible, and could not exist.

Kashmir Basin in NW Himalaya is considered a Neogene-Quatermary piggyback basin that was formed as result of the continent-continent collision of Indian and Eurasian plates. This model however is recently challenged by a pull-apart basin model, which argues that a major dextral strike-slip fault that runs through the Kashmir basin is responsible for its formation. And here it is demonstrated that this tectonic model is structurally unrealistic, and poses problems with geomorphology, geology, and tectonic setting of Kashmir basin. The major flaw of the model remains its orientation, and geometry, because a major dextral fault, which form a pull-apart basin, cannot cut through the center of a basin. It is therefore shown that the recently suggested pull-apart model is structurally impossible, and thus the Central Kashmir Fault (CKF), a proposed major dextral fault of Alam et al. (2015), could not exist.

Dextral Strike Slip

The Cariboo Mountains, British Columbia, contain an intracontinental dextral strike-slip fault system that crosscuts the regional fold structures. This fault system accounts for a minimum of 120 km and a maximum of 200 km of dextral strike-slip displacement. This probably accommodates some of the motion associated with the southern termination of the Northern Rocky Mountain Trench Fault and is part of a step-over zone between the Northern Rocky Mountain Trench Fault and the Fraser River – Straight Creek fault systems. The Isaac Lake Synclinorium is a kilometre-scale Jurassic fold structure that is bounded by the dextral oblique Isaac Lake and Winder strike-slip faults. These faults are part of the regional strike-slip fault system that is found throughout the Cariboo Mountains. Deformation associated with the strike-slip faults is complex and is partitioned into motion along the faults and into the formation of kilometre-scale folds that are found in areas between the faults. The angular relationship between the strike-slip faults and folds conforms to models developed for dextral strike-slip fault systems with drag on high-friction faults. We interpreted these structures to have formed during a continuous deformation event. Timing constraints indicate that faulting started by the Late Cretaceous and may have had a long and protracted history into the Tertiary.
