Influence of diapirs on the development of non-cylindrical arcuate fold-and-thrust belts: Results from analogue models of progressive arcs

In this paper, we present analogue models built to test the diapir role on the along-strike segmentation of fold-and-thrust belts in progressive arcs. To model the progressive arc, we used a protruding backstop that deformed in map view while the experiments run. This backstop indented a parallelepi...

description In this paper, we present analogue models built to test the diapir role on the along-strike segmentation of fold-and-thrust belts in progressive arcs. To model the progressive arc, we used a protruding backstop that deformed in map view while the experiments run. This backstop indented a parallelepiped formed by silicone at the bottom and sand, in which silicone cylinders were added to simulate diapirs. Various types of models with different size and distribution of the diapirs were made in order to investigate the strain partitioning modes around these heterogeneities. The deformation style of the models is characterized by a highly non-cylindrical arcuate fold-and-thrust belt with blocks bounded by normal or strike-slip faults that strongly rotated clockwise or anticlockwise. The diapirs are key heterogeneities for the nucléation and linking of structures at the beginning of the experiment.
