Talk:Fold (geology)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A fold could be represented by a class of continuous transformations of a plane which do not preserve the distances between points.
Not in all cases. Folding mechanisms can be cylindrical equal-volume deformation, or assymmetric folding which does not preserve volume and relationships (isogonal distance). So, don't over-generalise. Rolinator 14:59, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
I will add clarifying picutes soon. Amunchie 01:34, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
