TL;DR: Deformation bands are the most common strain localization feature found in deformed porous sandstones and sediments, including Quaternary deposits, soft gravity slides and tectonically affected sandstones in hydrocarbon reservoirs and aquifers as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, a three-dimensional deformation matrix for the simultaneous combination of coaxial deformation, with or without additional volume change, and up to three simple shearing systems with mutually orthogonal shear planes is presented.

TL;DR: The Caledonide Orogen in the Nordic countries is exposed in Norway, western Sweden, westernmost Finland, on Svalbard and in northeast Greenland as discussed by the authors, where the structure is dominated by E-vergent thrusts with allochthons derived from the Baltoscandian platform and margin, from outboard oceanic (Iapetus) terranes and with the highest thrust sheets having Laurentian affinities.

TL;DR: In this article, a spectrum of transpressional and transtensional deformations that potentially result from oblique plate interaction is introduced. But the authors focus on the cases of transpression and not on the transstensional deformation.

TL;DR: Fault relay structures are not only lateral communication paths for fluid flow across sealing faults, but their anomalously wide and well developed damage zones make them conduits of vertical fluid flow in petroleum, groundwater, CO2 sequestration and magma settings alike, and therefore also serve as sites of ore deposits as discussed by the authors.
