Influence of multiple décollement and cover rock rheology on the structural evolution of thin-skinned fold-and-thrust belts: insights from discrete element modelling

A variety of thin-skinned fold-and-thrust belts are associated with multiple décollements, which have low frictional basal and intermediate décollements related to mechanical stratigraphy and or overpressure conditions. The present study considers six ternary series of numerical discrete element (DE...
