Present-day stress orientations and tectonic provinces of the NW Borneo collisional margin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Extent: 15p.Borehole failure observed on image and dipmeter logs from 55 petroleum wells across the NW Borneo collisional margin were used to determine maximum horizontal stress (σH) orientations; combined with seismic and outcrop data, they define seven

Relation between Reopening Pressure and Tectonic Stresses for Hydraulic Fracturing Tectonic Stress Measurements.

open access: yesTRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS Series A, 1992
In order to establish the methodology of hydraulic fracturing tectonic stress measurements, the relation between the so-called reopening pressure of longitudinal cracks and tectonic stresses is studied. To this end, the coupled problem of fluid flow in the crack and the crack reopening behavior in an impermeable rock is analyzed based on the linear ...

THE CURRENT STATE OF CRUSTAL STRESSES IN THE CAUCASUS ACCORDING TO THE UNIFIED CATALOGUE OF EARTHQUAKE FOCAL MECHANISMS

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2020
The current state of crustal stresses in the Caucasus and adjacent territories has been reconstructed. Stress inversion was performed by the cataclastic analysis of earthquake focal mechanisms considered as seismological strain indicators.

Earthquake Predicting and Tectonic Stress Reducing Possibilities

open access: yes, 2022
Abstract Recent satellite and ground-based observations prove that during the earthquake formative period VLF/LF and ULF electromagnetic emissions are observed in seismogenic areas. The present consolidated paper describes a theoretical model of the generation of electromagnetic emissions detected during the earthquake preparation periods, a ...

PRESENTDAY STRESS STATE OF THE SHANXI TECTONIC BELT

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015
The Shanxi tectonic belt is a historically earthquakeabundant area. For the majority of strong earthquakes in this area, the distribution of earthquake foci was controlled by the N–S oriented local structures on the tectonic belt.

An integrated geodetic and InSAR technique for the monitoring and detection of active faulting in southwestern Sicily [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We present the results of the analysis of GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) and InSAR (Interferometric synthetic-aperture radar) data collected in the frame of a project financed by the “Struttura Terremoti” of INGV (Istituto Nazionale di ...

Case Studies of Rock Bursts in Tectonic Areas with Facies Change

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
Although tectonic areas with facies change (i.e., variation of coal seam thickness, coal seam dip angle, or coal quality) are one of the three major geological structures that induce rock bursts, case studies of rock bursts in these tectonic structures ...

Spatio-temporal evolution of intraplate strike-slip faulting: the Neogene-Quaternary Kuh-e-Faghan Fault, Central Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Central Iran provides an ideal region to study the long-term morphotectonic response to the nucleation and propagation of intraplate faulting. In this study, a multidisciplinary approach that integrates structural and stratigraphic field investigations ...
