Fig. 8

a Schematic drawing of the geometry. The sample is the gray box, green and red planes are shear planes, and blue arrows show the displacement directions of the blocks of material with respect to the bottom block. b Orientations of the shear. Blue arrows represent the directions of displacement with respect to the shear bands.
