[Retracted] Initiation of Triangle Zones by Delamination, Shear, and Compaction at the Front of Fold-and-Thrust Belts
Figure 9
The bound for the change in décollement (CM 7) is compared to the bound for classical thrusting (CM 2), the two forces being a function of the topographic slope (a). Note the small interval for dominance of CM 7. Note also in the inset, the transition occurs at the rear of the wedge in that interval. The positions of the three points , , and are presented in (b) as a function of to discuss stability conditions.
