توزیع و دستگیری مفاصل عمودی از طریق در معرض سکوهای کربناته در مقیاس لرزه ای (شبه جزیره سنتنتو، ایتالیا): بینش از یکپارچه سازی نظرسنجی و مدل خروجی دیجیتال

In this study, we present the results obtained from integrating field measurements with a digital outcrop model of a carbonate platform reservoir analogue in the Sorrento peninsula (Italy). The outcrop consists of a nearly vertical cliff exposing a monocline of alternating gently-dipping shallow-water limestones and dolostones, crossed by several vertical joints of different size. This study allowed us to define how major through-going joints pass across thick beds (bed thickness > 30 cm), while they arrest against packages made of thinly stratified layers. In essence, through-going joints arrest on “weak” levels, consisting of thinly bedded layers interposed between packages made of thick beds, in the same manner as bed-confined joints arrest on less competent interlayers.
