Paleostress Determination and Structural Analysis of the Area between Amman and Qasr Al-Hallabat, North Jordan [PDF]

open access: yesIraqi Geological Journal, 2022
This research derives paleostress tensors for deformation affecting late Cretaceous rocks between Amman and Al-Hallabat, northern Jordan and reconstructs the region's tectonic history.

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

open access: yesJournal of Applied Geology, 2015
Paleostress analysis on the landslide boundary faults is able to explain the sliding mechanism. This method is particularly useful to study a paleolandslide. About 30 striated fault planes from the Parangtritis paleo-landslide, located in the Yogyakarta coastline, were analyzed to define their principle stress axes. The eastern boundary fault, named as

Mechanical models to estimate the paleostress state from igneous intrusions

open access: yes, 2018
Dikes and sills represent an important component of the deformation history in volcanic systems, but unlike dikes, sills are typically omitted from traditional paleostress analyses in tectonic studies.

Insights into the Paleostress Analysis of Heterogeneous Fault-Slip Data by Comparing Different Methodologies: The Case of the Voltri Massif in the Ligurian Alps (NW Italy)

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
One of the most critical stages in fault-slip data stress analysis is separating the fault data into homogeneous subsets and selecting a suitable analysis method for each subset.

Paleostress Analysis of Atlantic Crustal Extension in the Quebec Appalachians [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Geology, 2006
Abstract A paleostress analysis using normal fault slip data and Jurassic dike trends has been conducted in the Quebec and New England Appalachians. Stress tensor analysis of fault slip by a numerical inversion method has distinguished homogeneous and directionally consistent E‐W‐ and NW‐SE‐oriented extensional stress regimes in the Quebec Appalachians

Genetic Mechanism of Lower-Order Faults in Shale Formations in Rift Basins

open access: yesGeofluids, 2023
The distribution of lower-order faults affects the development of oil and gas and the distribution of remaining oil, which is also the key to the development of fault block reservoirs in eastern China.

Understanding the Deformation Structures and Tectonics of the Active Orogenic Fold-Thrust Belt: Insights from the Outer Indo-Burman Ranges

open access: yesLithosphere, 2022
The tectonic deformation of the outer Indo-Burman Ranges (i.e., Chittagong Tripura Fold Belt, CTFB) is associated with the oblique convergence of Indo-Burmese plates since the latest Miocene.

Using Seismic Data and Slip Tendency to Estimate Paleostress: A Case Study From Xicaogu Area of Bohai Bay Basin, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Paleostress plays an important role in controlling the formation and distribution of reservoir fractures, which is a key factor controlling the production of oil and gas from unconventional reservoirs.

Neotectonics in Southern Ryukyu arc by means of paleostress analysis [PDF]

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

Control of pre-existing fabric in fracture formation, reactivation and vein emplacement under variable fluid pressure conditions: an example from Archean greenstone belt, India [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2020
Most of the upper crustal fluid flows are strongly influenced by the pre-existing fractures/foliations in the rocks under a certain state of tectonic stress and fluid pressure condition.
