Definitions:

Oblique-Slip Faults

Faults that exhibit both vertical (dip-slip) and lateral (strike-slip) movement, combining features of normal, reverse, and transform faults.

Normal Fault

A type of fault where the hanging wall slides downward relative to the footwall, typically caused by extensional forces.

Reverse Fault

A type of fault where the hanging wall moves upward relative to the footwall, typically associated with compressional stress.

Strike-Slip Fault

A type of fault where two blocks of Earth's crust slide past each other horizontally, often causing earthquakes.
