Abstract
Oil-exploration in compressional settings has become increasingly important in the last few years. In this context, interaction of fault-related folding and coeval sedimentation is an important topic that can be considered from different points of view. In this paper, we analyse different methods for reconstructing fault-related folds using the "unfolding" of growth strata associated with the growing folds.
