“…Convergence between Arabia and Iran has ∼ 60 • obliquity (e.g. McClay et al 2004;Vernant & Chery, 2006;Alavi, 2007); this results in a significant transpressional component of deformation in the ZOB, with dextral strike-slip faulting along NW-trending faults such as the Main Recent Fault. Because the pole of rotation for Arabia-Eurasia convergence lies in the Eastern Mediterranean, the convergence rate increases eastward along the ZOB, from ∼ 1.5-1.8 cm/yr in the NW (McClusky et al 2000) to ∼ 2.8 cm/yr to the SE (Sella, Dixon & Mao, 2002).…”

“…Scaled analogue models have been designed to simulate the formation of fold-and-thrust belts and accretionary wedges (Calassou et al, 1993;McClay et al, 2004). These experiments show that the asymmetrical development of the accretionary complex responds to many different factors in the experimental design.…”

“…Surprisingly, results show periods during which paleostress directions were identical in the allochthon and the foreland, reflecting their mechanical coupling, and periods during which stress directions differed between the allochthon and the foreland, reflecting their mechanical decoupling. Similar objectives were also addressed by Malavieille (1984), Martinez et al (2002), andMcClay et al (2004) by means of analogue models, exploring the effects of oblique convergence on strain partitioning and coupling/decoupling processes in foreland fold-and-thrust belts. Moreover, Nieuwland et al (1999Nieuwland et al ( , 2000Fig.…”
