Ola' Fabrizio,
you may want to have a look at Ken McClay's work and his team. Among other
tectonic scenarios, they have been working quite a bit on strike-slip
mechanisms, both at the field and analogue modelling scale. One of the
funding agencies for the project was Petrobras..
Hope this helps, kindest regards,
Umberto
