Fiexural shear in a periclinal fold from the Irish Variscides
Abstraet--Periclinal folds occur in a structural culmination in the centre of the Irish Variscan fold belt. The culmination marks a zone of enhanced
basic geometrical definitions Morphology of a folded surface: Hinge
Folds are three-dimensional structures. Connecting the hinge points on a specific folded surface defines the hinge line or fold axis. The limb may thus be

What is a periclinal fold?
- Periclinal folds are a type of anticlines that have a well-defined, but curved hinge line and are doubly plunging and thus elongate domes. What is the difference between an anticline and a syncline?
What is an anticline fold?
- • Anticline –A fold in the form of an arch, with the rock strata convex upward and the older rocks in the core Monocline Parts of a fold
What is a periclinal structure?
- scale antiforms or synforms whose amplitude decreases - regularly to zero in both directions so that the fold has precise limits in space. Domes and basins are periclinal structures. Aspect ratio The aspect ratio
What are polyclinal folds?
- Polyclinal folds belong to groups of folds with sub- parallel hinge lines but non -parallel axial surfaces. Layer thickness - parallel and similar folds Changes in layer thicknesses reflect the material properties of the fold.
