Geodynamic conditions for Cenozoic activation of tectonic structures in Southeastern Mongolia
Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2018 The knowledge of the neotectonic structures inSoutheastern Mongolia, that is considerably distant from the active plate boundaries, is important for determining a source of tectonic deformation and regular features of activation in the intracontinental ...

On the Paleostress Analysis Using Kinematic Indicators Found on an Oriented Core
Universal Journal of Geoscience, 2014 Paleostress analysis enables identification of stress history of a studied area. Reliable data are however necessary to get consistent results. Fault planes containing kinematic indicators have to be searched and recognized. If surface field survey is impossible, data are lacking, or deeper parts of a rock environment are being studied, boreholes can ...

Mesoproterozoic Strike-Slip Faulting within the Åland Rapakivi Batholith, Southwestern Finland
TektonikaPaleostress inversion analysis of outcrop data from brittle fault structures within the Mesoproterozoic 1.58 Ga Åland rapakivi granite, southwestern Finland, revealed two separate strike-slip faulting stages. Stage 1 is dominated by dextral slip along E–
