Figure F11. Diagrams of rake of striations (ϕ) deduced from the rake of intersection line between fault plane and split core surface (ϕ_i) and apparent rake measured (ϕ_a). α_s = right-hand rule strike of fault plane, v_n = unit vector normal to fault plane, v_c = unit vector normal to split core surface, v_i = unit vector parallel to intersection line between fault plane and split core surface. A. ϕ_a from top or 90° direction when fault plane dips westward. B. ϕ_a from bottom or 90° direction when fault plane dips eastward. C. ϕ_a from top or 270° direction when fault plane dips eastward. D. ϕ_a from bottom or 270° direction when fault plane dips westward.
