I wanted to add something relating rock mechanics to fault mechanics, since this is an exciting new field opening up. My audience is always the high-school student who wants to go a bit deeper into things. --Zeizmic 13:06, 26 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Query

The way this is written it makes me wonder who nabbed it out of whose book. Aside from it having about zero to do with the actual mechanics of faulting (see geological fault) re: shear and strain, it has the sound of a passage yanked from someone else's work. In my jaundiced opinion. Regardless, I'd still lke to see some detail put into the shear stress/strain side of this area.Rolinator 05:32, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
