New section about "Out-of-sequence thrusting"

Hi @Mikenorton, I was wondering if you'd be interested in adding a section about Out-of-sequence thrusting under this article. This idea sprung up while revisiting the 1555 Kashmir earthquake which I wrote some years ago. I noticed there isn't a place on Wikipedia that explores this, but if I can find the time, I'll give brief information in this article so there's a Wikilink to something.

Hi @Dora the Axe-plorer:, thanks for adding that, it's looking good. I'll see what I can add, when I get a moment. Mikenorton (talk) 08:30, 23 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
Great, I'll also work on an In-sequence thrusting section to compliment OOST Dora the Axe-plorer (explore) 09:40, 23 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
On further research, it seems that break-back thrusting (i.e. hinterland directed propagation sequences) are these days considered to be one type of "in-sequence" propagation (see Section 4.1 here). Mikenorton (talk) 12:08, 24 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
