Abstract

Fracture boudins are the result of combined discontinuous deformation of competent layers and continuous deformation of ductile layers.Take for example the fracture boudins occurring at Maquegou,Tieshan,Hubei,a new method of calculating the finite strain of a rock layer and restoring the original thickness of the layer is presented.It is very easy to operate and yields conclusive and reliable results.
