In this movie, a layer of gypsum powder is subjected to strike-slip deformation. Note the development of Riedel shear fractures before a through going fracture develops.
This movie was created by Dr. Marc Holland (http://www.ged.rwth-aachen.de/Ww/people/alumni/marc/marc_index.html), now at GeoMechanics international.
