Fig. 7

Overview of model results from Series B: Pure normal dip-slip along the basal fault, with a kinematic sand layer in Model B1, and with a full viscous detachment in Model B2. The weak layers have twice the thickness as those in Series A. Max. / Min. NS (incr.): Incremental maximum / minimum normal strain, indicating extension or contraction in the model, respectively. Vy: incremental displacement in the y-direction. Note that section locations are not indicated due to the progressive sectioning method (see Sect. 3.5 and Fig. 4)
