The incident of increased seismic activity of the Merapi volcano was initiated by several tectonic earthquake phenomena. Analysis of the mechanism of tectonic earthquakes can be studied based on the combination of static stress on the rock.

European continuous active tectonic strain–stress map [PDF]
This paper shows a new continuous strain-stress map for Europe obtained from the direct inversion of earthquake focal mechanisms calculated from the centroid tensor method. A total of 1608 focal mechanisms have been selected with several quality criteria from different catalogues (CMT Harvard, ETH, Med-Net, I.G.N.

Reconstruction of Tectonic Stresses in Central Sakhalin
The article presents the reconstruction of the tectonic stress field of the central part Sakhalin Island, obtained as a result of field tectonophysical studies in 2020–2022. The measurements made it possible to determine the predominant orientation of the main slickensides systems with different kinematics.

Fingerprinting stress: stylolite and calcite twinning paleopiezometry revealing the complexity of progressive stress patterns during folding-the case of the Monte Nero anticline in the Apennines, Italy [PDF]
In this study we show for the first time how quantitative stress estimates can be derived by combining calcite twinning and stylolite roughness stress fingerprinting techniques in a fold-and-thrust belt.

Structural and stress analysis in mining practice in the Upper Silesian Coal Basin [PDF]
The irregular distribution of stress in rock mass is a decisive factor for the origin of rock bursts. Besides, a sound knowledge of stress distribution is very important in the excavation of mine workings. Stress state is affected both by natural stress,

Normal fault earthquakes or graviquakes [PDF]
Earthquakes are dissipation of energy throughout elastic waves. Canonically is the elastic energy accumulated during the interseismic period. However, in crustal extensional settings, gravity is the main energy source for hangingwall fault collapsing ...

The Ability of Significant Tidal Stress to Initiate Plate Tectonics [PDF]
Plate tectonics is a geophysical process currently unique to Earth, has an important role in regulating the Earth's climate, and may be better understood by identifying rocky planets outside our solar system with tectonic activity.
