DEFORMATION REGIMES AND LOW-RANK PALEOTECTONIC STRESSES OF THE WESTERN TIAN SHAN IN THE MESOZOIC – CENOZOIC

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2023
There is a description of the results of studies of deformation regimes and reconstruction of stress fields of certain time intervals of the Mesozoic – Cenozoic history of the western part of the Tien Shan based on the geological and structural data and ...

The Magnetic Signature of Stress in Rocks

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Magnetic signatures preserved in rocks have long provided insight into Earth's evolution, revealing processes from plate tectonics to the habitability of Earth. While large impacts are known to impose extreme stresses (>1 GPa) and heat that fundamentally alters magnetic records, lower stresses typical of earthquakes have been considered ...

Bi-directional extensional control of the Berane Basin formation, northern Montenegro [PDF]

Geološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva
The Berane Basin is a Miocene, northeast‐southwest oriented intramountain basin of the Dinarides, overlying the pre‐neotectonic basement of the Drina–Ivanjica unit, the East Bosnian–Durmitor unit and the Western Vardar Zone.

Stress and Rock Failure Near Salt Bodies: Insights From Field Observations, Kinematic Modeling, and Mechanical Analysis Near Arches National Park, Paradox Basin, Utah

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Salt's inherent weakness and capacity for ductile deformation create significant mechanical contrasts that locally perturb the stress field in surrounding rocks, often leading to deviations from regional tectonic stresses. Variations in local stress are a critical factor for wellbore stability, seal integrity, and fluid flow in subsurface ...

Evaluating Regional Stress Versus Structural Controls on a Middle Miocene Dike Swarm in the Sanbagawa Metamorphic Complex, Southwest Japan

Island Arc, Volume 35, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT The Middle Miocene Takaiwa Rhyolite dike swarm in central Shikoku, southwest Japan, provides a key opportunity to evaluate whether arc‐parallel dikes record the regional stress field in a crustal domain with a pervasive ENE–WSW structural grain.

Paleostress Analysis of Chia Gara Structure in Dohuk Area, Northern Iraq

Iraqi Journal of Science, 2020
The use of Right dihedral method, Lisle graph, and Mohr diagram allows the analysis of the paleostress. Fault slip data were measured for eighteen data of two stations located within Chia Gara structure in Dohuk area in the High Folded Zone, Northern Iraq.

Stress Field Evolution of the Southernmost Andean Cordillera From Paleostress Analysis (Argentine Tierra del Fuego) [PDF]

Tectonics, 2019
AbstractThe Argentine Tierra del Fuego comprises part of the roughly east‐west trending southern end of the Andean Cordillera intensely deformed since the Mesozoic. Mesostructures have been measured in Late Jurassic to Miocene rocks. Taking into account statistical criteria to provide a representative stress tensor from a fault population, this study ...

Contemporaneous Stress in Taiwan: Evidence for Orogen‐Parallel Extension and Lower Crustal Extrusion

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 11, November 2025.
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.
