Geological link between fluid inclusions, dilatant microcracks, and paleostress field

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1990
Seismic investigations using three‐component instruments have demonstrated shear wave splitting in widely different geological and tectonic environments. Shear wave analysis suggests that the inferred anisotropy can best be explained if the rocks contain distributions of subparallel, subvertical, fluid‐filled microfractures which are aligned according ...

Salt Tectonics of the Subhercynian Basin, Northern Germany - From Paleostress Field Analysis to Basin Modelling

Proceedings, 2013
Salt dominated sedimentary basins are economically important, because they can have a high hydrocarbon potential. We used the Subhercynian Basin in northern Germany as a natural laboratory to analyse the evolution of piercing and non-piercing salt structures.

Mechanism of Paleo-Mesoproterozoic rifts related to breakup of Columbia supercontinent: A paleostress field modeling

Journal of Geodynamics, 2017
Abstract The Paleo-Mesoproterozoic Zhongtiao aulacogen in the North China Craton and Cuddapah basin in the Indian Craton, have both been interpreted as intra-continental rift formed by a mantle plume that led to the breakup of Columbia supercontinent, but the mechanism has not been completely deciphered.

Integration of east African Paleostress and present‐day stress data: Implications for continental stress field dynamics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1992
Borehole breakout studies, aligned Quaternary volcanic vents, and kinematic analysis of Quaternary faults indicate that the present‐day least horizontal stress direction (Shmin) in Kenya is aligned approximately NW‐SE and in central Sudan is nearly N–S. Limited data in eastern Ethiopia suggest a NE‐SW Shmin orientation.

Fault kinematics and paleostress analysis using seismic data: A case study from the Archinsk field, West Siberian Basin, Russia

Journal of Structural Geology, 2020
Abstract We present a methodology to determine the stress field based on the analysis of 3D seismic reflection data without additional information from wells. It involves the analysis of seismic horizons that were folded before the analyzed fault system.

A new methodology for paleostress reconstruction using theory, field observations and petrophysical data

2015
The measurement of crustal stress magnitude is always challenging and generally poorly constrained. This is particularly significant in active fault zones where the knowledge of stress magnitude is crucial for understanding fault mechanics during earthquakes nucleation.

FIELDS OF DEFORMATIONS AND PALEOSTRESSES IN EFFUSIVE FORMATIONS OF THE VYGORLAT-HUTYN RANGE OF THE TRANSCARPATHIAN BASIN

SCIENTIFIC PAPERS OF DONNTU Series: “The Mining and Geology”
Purpose. Study of discontinuous mesostructures in outcrops of volcanogenic formations of the western part of the Vyhorlat-Hutyn Range in the Uzh River basin of the Transcarpathian basin. Methods. An analysis of geological maps of the territory and the results of previous studies of magmatic formations of the region and their breaking dislocations was
