Tesling the kinematic compatibilily of the geometry of a fault surface (1) and the geometry of the structure (2) which slips on the fault surface is a complex problem that we solved partially. We considered problem (1) in context of rigid blocks and problem (2) for a folded foliation. ln the general context of macro-model determination by inversion techniques, we propose a specific least-squares criterion to constrain the shape of faults so as to be compatible with the rigid block approximation, i.e., the two blocks remain in contact and slip on each other without strain. If this condition is met, the fault surface is a thread, i.e., a surface that is everywhere tangent to a non zero twistor vector field. Besides, we constrain the surface t...
