Numerical paleostress analysis – the limits of automation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The purpose of this paper is to highlight the main problematic questions limiting the automation of numerical paleostress analysis of heterogeneous fault-slip data sets.

PALEOSTRESS ANALYSIS TO INTERPRET THE LANDSLIDE MECHANISM: A CASE STUDY IN PARANGTRITIS, YOGYAKARTA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Paleostress analysis on the landslide boundary faults is able to explain the sliding mechanism. This method is particularly useful to study a paleolandslide.

Structural Controls on Shallow Cenozoic Fluid Flow in the Otago Schist, New Zealand

open access: yesGeofluids, 2020
The Otago Schist in the South Island of New Zealand represents an exhumed Mesozoic accretionary prism. Two coastal areas (Akatore Creek and Bruce Rocks) south of Dunedin preserve structural and geochemical evidence for the development of postmetamorphic ...

Paleostress reconstructions and structure of the Tuapse strike-slip fault

open access: yesMoscow University Bulletin. Series 4. Geology, 2016
The results of the field structural studies of Northwest Caucasus Tuapse Shear Zone are presented. There are strike-slip displacements of different scale and the domination of horizontal shear conditions (type of geodynamic stress state that cause the formation of faults with mainly lateral movement of the wings along strike fault surface) within this ...

Interaction Between Transverse and Rift Faults During the Initiation of Orogenic Extension: The Case of Sant'Anna Pelago (Northern Apennines, Italy)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Sant'Anna Pelago is located near the extensional front of the Northern Apennines (Italy) between Modena and Lucca, an area characterized by multiple lateral steps of the NW‐SE striking tectonic system and orographic divide. The region is affected by significant instrumental seismicity with over a thousand recorded events (0.5 < M < 4.8) from ...

Reconciling post-orogenic faulting, paleostress evolution, and structural inheritance in the seismogenic northern Apennines (Italy): insights from the Monti Martani Fault System [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth
Structural inheritance plays a significant role in the evolution of fault systems in different tectonic settings. Both positive reactivation of pre-orogenic extensional faults and negative reactivation of synorogenic reverse faults during orogenic cycles

All Aligned on the Western Front of North America? Analyzing the Stress Field in the Northern Cordillera

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract This study presents the first rigorous statistical analysis of the present‐day crustal stress along the western margin of the North American Plate, covering the entire Canadian Cordillera and Alaska. Using circular statistics and geometric tests, we develop a regional stress province model that constrains the directions of first‐order stresses.

Finit element models of Tertiary paleostress fields in the eastern part of the Tajo basin (Central Spain)

open access: yes, 1996
Two groups of finite element models have been carried out over Tertiary paleostress fields deduced from fault-slip data in the eastern part of the Tajo Basin.

A new approach for paleostress analysis from kink bands: application of fault-slip methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Optimal and nonoptimal methods of fault-slip analysis are tested on the simple type of kink bands by treating these structures as if they were striated faults.

Miocene to Quaternary deformation, stratigraphy and paleogeography in Northeastern Slovenia and Southwestern Hungary

open access: yesGeologija, 2002
The Mura-Zala basin was formed due to ENE-WSW trending crustal extension in the late early and middle Miocene (19 – 11 Ma). Marine sedimentation occurred in several more or less confined depressions (half grabens), then in a unified basin.
