Abstract: | The problem of folding in the Earth’s stratified crust is addressed within the framework of solid mechanics. The history and
formulation of the problem and approaches to its solution are briefly outlined. The initial stage of folding in strata with
different mechanical properties is studied in detail using the piecewise-homogeneous medium model and the three-dimensional
theory of stability. Conclusions of applied and fundamental importance are drawn from an analysis of solutions to a wide range
of specific problems
