A neural network approach for classification of fault-slip data in geoscience
In geoscience, paleostress studies are a vital tool for understanding the tectonic evolution of the region. The collected hundreds or even thousands of heterogeneous fault-slip data need to be divided into homogeneous (i.e., belonging to similar tectonic

Tectonic stress of the southeastern part of the Gorny Altai [PDF]
Data on the stress-strain state of the rocks in the area of the Chuya and Kuray depressions located in the southeastern part of the Gorny Altai were obtained using field tectonophysical methods.

Contemporaneous Stress in Taiwan: Evidence for Orogen‐Parallel Extension and Lower Crustal Extrusion
Abstract Syn‐to late‐orogenic extension caused by gravitational collapse is a process that has been documented in most orogens. In this paper, we investigate the contemporaneous stress field in Taiwan to examine syn‐orogenic extensional faulting and the possible gravitational collapse modes by which it is taking place.

Stress-strain state of the Heraklei volcano-tectonic block of the Mountainous Crimea
This paper presents the paleostress results obtained for Heracleyskaya anticlinal (Western Crimea). On the basis of field tectonophysical study of brittle planes and 3D relief map deciphering the scheme of faults is made.

Abstract The fragmentation of continents results in microplates that rotate to accommodate the lateral propagation of bounding rifts. Yet, the relationships between microplate rotation rates, fault slip, and kinematics at propagating rift tips remain unknown.

y-gRaph: An OpenOffice application to reconstruct paleostress fields from striated faults
An application (y-gRaph) to reconstruct paleostress fields from faults striations by means of the y–R diagram method is here presented. Based on modified Bott´s equation, the diagram relates y (azimuth of the maximum horizontal stress axis) and R (stress

Paleostress analysis on Paleozoic syn-depositional faults in the eastern Alborz, northern Iran
The Alborz Mountains of northern Iran stand out as an exceptional site for studying the Ediacaran-Paleozoic evolution of the northern Gondwana margin. The Alborz forms the inverted continental shelf of the Central Iranian microcontinent that was part of ...

Morphometric Evidence for Cenozoic Intraplate Reactivation in NW Uruguay
Abstract Located in eastern South America, Uruguay has been considered tectonically inactive since rifting in the Late Cretaceous. Here, we use a high‐resolution digital elevation model and field observations to investigate the presence of recent tectonic activity in the Basaltic Plateau, northwest Uruguay.
