Abstract: Studies of normal fault development in space and time by X-ray tomography imaged analogue modelling suggest that different processes occur during the propagation of these faults. The conceptual model proposed istinguishes two types of propagation: horizontal and vertical. Examination of horizontal propagation reveals two separate levels of organization. Firstly, an isolated fault segment develops, alternately over time, by radial propagation and by linkage with secondary fault segments (tip faults) arising atthe end of the main fault segment (parent fault). These are arranged either in an en echelon or stepwise pattern. Secondly, isolated faults evolve by linkage. Two isolated faults connect up via a relay fault area which arises ...
