A neural network approach for classification of fault-slip data in geoscience

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal
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

Kinematics of the Havran-Balıkesir Fault Zone and its implication on geodynamic evolution of the Southern Marmara Region, NW Anatolia

open access: yesGeodinamica Acta, 2018
Cenozoic convergence, collision and subsequent subduction between African and Eurasian plates are accommodating in overriding Eurasian plate both forming the Aegean extension and the North & East Anatolian fault zones.

Spatial-Temporal Evolution of Extensional Faulting and Fluid Circulation in the Amatrice Basin (Central Apennines, Italy) During the Pleistocene

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
In extensional continental settings, crustal-scale normal faults can accommodate deformation and subsidence at their hanging wall via activation and deactivation of subsidiary tectonic structures.

An integrated magnetic susceptibility anisotropy (AMS) and structural geological study on Cenozoic clay rich sediments from the Transdanubian Range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Systematic structural and anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) measurements were carried out on Cenozoic clay rich deposits from the Transdanubian Range, central part of the Alcapa Unit. The aim was to improve the knowledge on the Neogene tectonic

Microstructural Evolution of Carrara Marble During Semi‐Brittle Deformation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Fifteen marble samples were subjected to semi‐brittle deformation through triaxial compression experiments, reaching axial strains of about 0.5%, 1.0%, 2.0%, 4.0%, or 7.5% at temperatures of 20°C, 200°C, or 350°C, under a confining pressure of 400 MPa.

Anatomy of a Curved Orogen: The Broken River Orocline in the Northeastern Tasmanides (Australia)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Oroclines record crustal and lithospheric‐scale processes in active plate margins. In northeastern Australia, the Broken River Orocline is marked by the curvature of structural fabrics and tectonic elements. However, the geometry, structural evolution, and tectonic implications of this orocline are poorly understood.

Evolución tectónica y morfoestructural reciente de la Península Byers (Antártida): evidencias sobre el desarrollo de las Islas Shetland del Sur y la Cuenca de Bransfield [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
[EN] Byers Peninsula forms the western extremity of the Livingston Island (Antarctica) in the continental South Shetland Block. This tectonic block is bounded by the South Shetland Trench to the north, the Bransfield back-arc basin to the south, and ...

Polyphase Tectonic Evolution of the Puerto Rico‐Virgin Islands Microplate Revealed by Fault‐Slip Data and Stress Inversions

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The northeastern Caribbean plate boundary (NCPB) includes the Puerto Rico‐Virgin Islands (PRVI) microplate that is bounded by oblique subduction zones in the Muertos and Puerto Rico Trenches, and by the Mona Rift, and the Anegada Passage rifts.

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

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

Accelerated Tectonic Activity, Rather Than Paleolake Regression, Drives Increased Pleistocene River Incision Along the Jinshan Gorge in the Middle Yellow River

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract The Jinshan Gorge in the middle Yellow River, northern China, currently connecting the upstream Hetao Graben to the downstream Weihe Graben, is hypothesized to have recently developed, which implies changing incision rates along the gorge. However, different integration processes have been proposed, such as paleolake regression in the Weihe ...
