(From Tempur-Pedic's Website) Tempur-Pedic mattresses have been designed to be paired with a Tempur-Pedic foundation. However, we understand that some consumers wish to use their existing platform style bed with slats (as opposed to a flat surface) with our mattress.
Types of Thrust Faults â¢ Fault bend folds-fault forms before the fold; deformation restricted to the hanging wallâ¢ Fault propagation folds-fault forms along with the folding; deformation in both the hanging wall and foot wall. Example of a fault-bend fold thrust fault at the WVU Geology Field Camp.
With both normal and reverse faults, movement occurs vertically. A normal fault is usually associated with plates that are diverging. Tension weakens the crust until the rock fractures, and one block of rock moves downward relative to the other. A reverse fault is usually associated with plates that are colliding. Compression forces a fault block upward. A thrust fault is a special kind of reverse fault where one or more plates are under the ocean. At a thrust fault, a plate below the sea is moving under another plate, thrusting its edge upward. The process of one plate diving under the other is called subduction. Thrust faults can produce larger earthquakes than strike-slip faults.
