Mechanics of Active Salt Diapirism Mechanics of Active Salt Diapirism 1994

An active diapir forcefully intrudes its overburden, driven by diapir pressure that overcomes the resistance of the overburden strength. Possible causes of the driving pressure are differential loading of the source layer and a density contrast with the overburden.
