Neotectonics in Southern Ryukyu arc by means of paleostress analysis

open access: yesNeotectonics in Southern Ryukyu arc by means of paleostress analysis
Paleostress estimation is essential in understanding the tectonics of the Southern Ryukyu arc. We have used Multiple inverse method (Yamaji, 2000) and Ginkgo method (Yamaji, 2003) to detect paleostress from the fault-slip data collected in the Southern Ryukyu arc where 23 groups of stress (stresses A-W) are devided. We suggest that stress transition in

Kinematic development and paleostress analysis of the Denizli Basin (Western Turkey): implications of spatial variation of relative paleostress magnitudes and orientations

open access: yesJournal of Asian Earth Sciences, 2006
Paleostress orientations and relative paleostress magnitudes (stress ratios), determined by using the reduced stress concept, are used to improve the understanding of the kinematic characteristics of the Denizli Basin. Two different dominant extension directions were determined using fault-slip data and travertine fissure orientations.

Geomechanical paleostress inversion using fracture data

Journal of Structural Geology, 2016
Abstract We describe a fast geomechanically-based paleostress inversion technique that uses observed fracture data to constrain stress through multiple simulations. The method assumes that the local stress field around individual fractures is heterogeneous and derives the far field tectonic stress, that we also call the far field boundary conditions.

Orientation of Paleostress of Raplee Ridge Anticline [PDF]

open access: yesThe Compass: Earth Science Journal of Sigma Gamma Epsilon, 2019
During the Laramide Orogeny several major folds were formed in Southern Utah, one of those being the Raplee Ridge anticline. Raplee Ridge is approximately eight miles from Mexican Hat, Utah. The San Juan River cuts through the anticline, exposing the Honaker Trail Formation’s beds of shale and limestone with chert nodules.
