Análisis de estilos estructurales a partir de modelos análogos (ambientes compresivos)
La Cuña Critica (CC) es una estructura geológica asociada a ambientes compresivos. La dinámica interna está controlada por el esfuerzo aplicado, generando mayor intensidad en la deformación a medida que se aumenta el acortamiento horizontal, la pendiente topográfica que exhiben estas estructuras en...

The Critical Wedge (CW) is a geological structure associated to collisional environments. The internal dynamic is controlled by applied stress
generating greater intensity in the strain while the horizontal shortening
the dip surface that these wedge-shaped structures exhibits is controlled by the critical taper theory (ϕc)
being a stability criterion
Wilkerson y Marshak
(1997). The fold-belt faults (FBF) systems are structures associated to a collisional environment (active margins) Cristallini
(1998). These two concepts are closely related
the CW’s study being a determining factor to comprehend the evolution of FBF systems
Davis et al. (1983). Analog models are a tool to understand the evolution of geological structures in different tectonic environments
since in nature it is only possible to appreciate deformation as a finite state
Davis et al. (1983). Analog modelling allows to analyze in different temporal and spatial scales the evolution of natural prototypes
facilitating their study. The problem considered in this thesis consists in identifying the appropriate material for lab-scale analog modelling
and illustrating some factors that influence the evolution of an FBF and GW system
associated to a collisional environment
that conditions the structural styles present. For this process
a sandbox will be constituted in order to reproduce geological structures analogically
replicating grosso modo
the FBF-generating mechanisms in very distinct temporal and spatial scales.
