Models showing the formation of SSDs in the Tokha Formation. a The model explaining formation of Example 4. B & D Def. = brittle and ductile deformation, b The model explaining SSDs with sliding. B to D Def. = brittle deformation in the upper part and ductile deformation in the lower part, c The model for the case that sliding didn’t occur when the SSDs were generated. The arrows indicate the stretched sand and silt
