8. Definitions and Keywords1
1) Fault: Fault is a structural feature in the Earth surface where one side/ block moves relative to the other side/block
2) Hanging wall and Foot wall: Fault divides the rocks into two parts. The upper part is termed as hanging wall and the lower part is termed as foot wall
3) Listric Fault: Fault associated with curved fault surface
4) Simple shear: “It is type of constant volume plane strain deformation .There is no stretching or shortening of lines or the movement of the particles in the third direction "Fossen 2010
5) Antithetic simple shear: Shear plane dipping against the main fault
6) Inclined shear and vertical shear: Shear acts by making an angle (inclined angle) with respect to the existing surface is termed as Inclined shear and shear acts vertically with respect to the existing surface is called Vertical shear 2 3 4 5

9. 3 Stepwise description of process 1 2 4 5
The goal of the document is to provide instructions to an animator who is not a expert.
You have to describe what steps the animator should take to make your concept come alive as a moving visualization.
Use one slide per step. This will ensure clarity of the explanation.
Add a image of the step in the box, and the details in the table below the box.
You can use any images for reference, but mention about it's copyright status
The animator will have to re-draw / re-create the drawings
Add more slides as per the requirement of the animation 2 3 4 5

22. Self- Assessment Questionnaire for Learners
APPENDIX 1
Self- Assessment Questionnaire for Learners
Please provide a set of questions that a user can answer based on the LO. They can be of the following types:
These questions should be 5 in number and can be of objective type (like MCQ, Match the columns, Yes or No, Sequencing, Odd One Out).
The questions can also be open-ended. The user would be asked to think about the question. The author is requested to provide hints if possible, but a full answer is not necessary.
One can include questions, for which the user will need to interact with the LO (with certain parameters) in order to answer it.
It is better to avoid questions based purely on recall.

23. Questionnaire APPENDIX 1
1) What will be intermediate stage between the initial position and final position of the hanging wall due to applying inclined shear force over it?

Fig. 2
Movement of the hanging wall due to shear stress

24. Questionnaire APPENDIX 1 Options are: a) Answer will be Fig. 1
b) Answer will be Fig. 2
c) Answer will be Fig. 3
2) Why the inclined shear has been named as ‘antithetic’ shear?
a) Shear plane dipping against the main fault (here listric fault only)
b) Shear plane dipping in the same direction adjacent to the main fault
c) Shear direction would be synonymous to anticlockwise direction
d) None of these.
3) In the case of deformation of hanging wall, the length of the foot wall
a) Shortens
b) Extends
c) remains fixed, has no change
d) goes slightly upward

25. Questionnaire 4) Vertical shear involves a) Shortening b) Extension
c) None of these
d) Neither extension nor shortening, but individual layers will be extended

Summary
Please provide points to remember to understand the concept/ key terms of the animation, in the next slide.
The summary will help the user in the quick review of the concept.

29. APPENDIX 3
Summary
Listric normal fault (with curved fault surface) has been considered in our discussion. In this case due to shear stress, a gap‘d’ generates in between hanging wall and foot wall. In this stage if we apply inclined shear stress and vertical shear stress the changes would occur for individual stage. In both cases (inclined shear stress and vertical shear stress) the hanging wall block conforms the shape of the listric fault keeping constant the length (L) of the surface layer and total layer of the block.
