Tectonic stress of the southeastern part of the Gorny Altai [PDF]

open access: yesГеосистемы переходных зон
Data on the stress-strain state of the rocks in the area of the Chuya and Kuray depressions located in the southeastern part of the Gorny Altai were obtained using field tectonophysical methods.

Mineral exploration potential of ERTS-1 data [PDF]

open access: yes
The author has identified the following significant results. ERTS-1 imagery of an area approximately 15,000 square miles in Arizona was interpreted for regional structure and tectonic units.

Tectonic evolution of a continental collision zone: A thermomechanical numerical model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We model evolution of a continent-continent collision and draw some parallels with the tectonic evolution of the Himalaya. We use a large-scale visco-plasto-elastic thermomechanical model that has a free upper surface, accounts for erosion and deposition

Earthquakes: from chemical alteration to mechanical rupture

open access: yes, 1998
In the standard rebound theory of earthquakes, elastic deformation energy is progressively stored in the crust until a threshold is reached at which it is suddenly released in an earthquake.

Remote-sensing of tectonic-induced stress across faults using high energy muon beams

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
We illustrate a theoretical study of a technique using high-energy muon beams (TeV class) propagating through thick (kilometer-long) crystalline rock layers subject to tectonic-induced stress, potentially capable of actively monitoring the temporal ...

Simulation of a Multi-Stage Stress Field and Regional Prediction of Structural Fractures in the Tucheng Syncline, Western Guizhou, China

open access: yesGeosciences
The prediction of structural fractures in concealed coal-bearing strata has always been a complex problem. The purpose of this study was to clarify the tectonic evolution of the study area, i.e., the Tucheng syncline, since the coal-forming period and to

Multiple Linear Regression Inversion of the Ground Stress Field in Rock Masses for Tunnel Engineering: A Novel Approach to Stress Field Reconstruction

open access: yesBuildings
The inversion of the ground stress field in rock masses is critical for accurate tunnel and underground engineering design. This study addresses the challenge of accurately capturing both the primary and secondary stress field components in rock masses ...

Using Fracture-Induced Electromagnetic Radiation (FEMR) for In Situ Stress Analysis: A Case Study of the Ramon Crater

open access: yesRemote Sensing
This study examines fracture-induced electromagnetic radiation (FEMR) to assess tectonic stress in the Ramon Crater, a geologically “stable” area in southern Israel.

In-situ stress distribution model in viscoelastic coal seams based on the stress relaxation effects and its application in outburst-prone coal seams

open access: yesMeitan xuebao
In-situ stress is a core factor controlling dynamic gas disasters in coal mines. Existing in-situ stress models are primarily based on the elastic properties of coal-rock formations and are not suitable for viscoelastic coal media.

Recent Seismic Activity in the Azores Region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This seismic activity in the Azores Region is characterized by sequences of low-magnitude events, usually with epicenter off-shore. These seismic sequences are sometimes triggered by larger events, felt by the population, that could produce significant ...
