Chains foreland and accretionary prisms are sedimentary accumulations detached from the underlying crust in a compressive context. Due to low temperatures, deformation is frictional and seismogenic.In the first part we studied sandstone samples collected near the active fault of Chelungpu, deformation front of the Taiwanese accretionary prism. We show that the current preferred orientation of intra-granular microfractures does not always coincide with the orientation of new micro-fractures produced during mechanical testing, contradicting the results of similar work.The second part presents the analysis of numerical modeling using sequential limit analysis of frictional homogeneous prism. We develop this 2D approach as a semi-analytic gener...
