StrainModeler: A Mathematica-based program for 3D analysis of finite and progressive strain
A program to analyze 3D progressive and finite strain is developed. The strain of any straight segment or plane is analyzed in a 3D context. A variety of graphic outputs allow visualization of the strain. An application example is devoted to the deformation of a plane by simple shear. The strain in recumbent folds and in a regional shear zone is analyzed.
