This mechanism deforms an element to accommodate a change in shape by movement on closely spaced parallel planes of slip. The commonest assumption is vertical shear although comparisons with well understood examples suggest that antithetic inclined shear (i.e. in the opposite sense of dip to the controlling fault) at about 60°–70° is the ...
Central slip is the tendon on the top of the finger attached to the middle bone of the finger, aiding the straightening of the middle PIP joint [1] The primary cause of boutonnière deformity is trauma, such as blunt force, lacerations, or dislocations.

It is one of the major sinistral strike-slip structures that together help to accommodate the eastward motion of this zone of thickened crust , relative to ...
