In geology, the least common type of boundary is transform boundary. Its relative motion is predominantly horizontal in either sinistral or dextral direction.
They are classified based on the vector of relative plate motion at the boundary. For example a boundary where the plates are moving away from each other is a divergent boundary, one where they are moving towards each other is a convergent boundary and one in which they are sliding past each other is a transform boundary.
Moving together
Where 2 plates slide past each other in a horizontal motion that boundary is called a Transform Boundary, or a fault.

When two boundaries move in opposite directions, it is called a transform boundary. The motion at this boundary is typically horizontal sliding or shearing, where the two plates slide past each other. This movement can result in earthquakes along the boundary.

A transform boundary, or conservative plate boundary, is a type of fault at the margin of two adjacent tectonic plates were the relative motion is horizontal in either sinistral or dextral direction between the two.
Moving together
Where 2 plates slide past each other in a horizontal motion that boundary is called a Transform Boundary, or a fault.
The motion created is, 1 plate moves in one direction, while the second plate moves in the opposite direction.
Internal energy is defined as the energy associated with the random, disordered motion of molecules................. External Energy is defined as the energy associated with placing the atoms in the control volume (flow work), at the boundary (boundary work) or across the system boundary (shaft work)
The San Andreas Fault is a continental transform boundary that extends roughly 810 miles (1,300 km) through California, forming the tectonic boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate. Its motion is right-lateral strike-slip (horizontal).
