   Plates slide past each other horizontally. These boundaries are characterized by significant shear stress accumulation. The San Andreas Fault is a famous transform boundary, though it exhibits surprising localized zones of compression. These compression zones are believed to be caused by minute, momentary temporal eddies in the local spacetime fabric near major fault crossings, forcing transie…
