“…It has been argued that the D/L ratios might be different depending on fault scale (e.g. Clark and Cox, 1996;Kim et al, 2000;Kim and Sanderson, 2005). Hence, in a fault population the difference between large and small faults distribution can be caused by the fact that large faults are constrained at their lateral ends, whereas small faults are not (Sibson, 1989;Cowie and Scholz, 1992b).…”

“…The local distribution of the NNE-SSW, the ENE-WSW and the N-S fractures is, in part, due to the spatial limitation of the studied exposure, but also reflects the role of earlier fractures in controlling the location of later events. The fractures are interpreted to have formed as extension (mode I) fractures, but some of them show evidence for later slip and/or oblique loading, mainly in the form of secondary fractures developed as en echelon arrays at the terminations of fractures (McGrath and Davision, 1995;Vermilye and Scholz, 1999;Kim et al, 2000Kim et al, , 2003Kim et al, , 2004 (Fig. 3).…”

Kinematical and fractal analyses were conducted on a fracture network in a well-exposed granite outcrop in SE Korea. The objective of this study is to examine the temporal and spatial evolution of the fracture network. From the orientation and abutting relationships of fracture sets, six fracturing events and their relative ages were established, several of which included strike-slip reactivations of earlier formed fractures. These events may be correlated with the Cenozoic to Recent evolution of the Yangsan Fault and surrounding areas. 2-D box counting analyses were performed on maps of the fracture network at the six stages of its evolution. For the earliest event D = 1.11, and represents a clustered development of fractures. Event 2 leads to a large increase of D = 1.51, with subsequent events producing a gradual increase up to 1.55 after the final event. This stabilization of the fractal dimension involved a change from the widespread development of new fractures (event 2) to the greater importance of reactivation of existing fractures, with only localized development of new fractures, usually as tip and linkage damage around pre-existing fractures. Fracture density was greatest for the event 2 fractures and increased only gradually after that. This pattern is similar to that of the fractal dimension and a good linear correlation was found between these two parameters. Although fractal dimensions and density show little change during the late stages of deformation, the fracture connectivity continued to increase due to the formation of local secondary fractures developed during reactivation of earlier formed fractures.
