My research focuses on the development and application of numerical techniques to address questions in tectonics, sedimentation, and basin evolution. I am interested in employing numerical models to question the dominant processes involved in regions of active faulting associated with sedimentation and determine which key parameters cause observed geometries in both two and three dimensions. The information gained is compared with observations from natural examples of fault growth, stratigraphic relationships, and scaling laws. You are welcome to use any of the images/movies here if you like, but please quote the doi of the collection or selected page(s) if you do. New experiments are added intermittently, so if you are interested to see other experiments, click on the follow button above. Thanks, Emma I am grateful for the assistance of Research IT and the use of the CSF at The University of Manchester. Images and movies are generated using CaptureWiz and GIF Movie Gear.
