Abstract

Presents the results concerning a comparative analysis of paleotectonic reconstructions of the tectonic conditions dynamics for the formation of local plicative deformations and faulting in the study of the macrostructure and its local separation using the example of the Almazno-Marievskyi region. The formation conditions characteristics of the Petrodonetska anticline and adjacent territories were obtained. In the plan, they are located en echelon-like, which is associated with a shift. The structure of the latter indicates a thrusting of the sedimentary stratum layers from the center of the Donetsk trough to its northern periphery. The analysis of reconstruction results regarding the formation of the Lysychanska anticline on the border with the Severodonetskyi thrust and sections in experimental research of pop-up structures, reveals their similarity in structure and formation. With oblique convergence of blocks from the shear zone, a series of overlapping thrusts are extruded. A central graben arises within the transpressive shear zone, along its axis due to the divergent reverse faults in the arched uplift. A system of parallel thrust faults forms a ramp. The necessity of using the system modeling method (the finite element method), which improves the methods for predicting gas-containing tectonic elements in the pop-up structures, is justified.
