Crustal fault reactivation facilitating lithospheric folding/buckling in the central Indian Ocean

open access: yes, 1996
High-quality, normal-incidence seismic reflection data confirm that tectonic deformation in the central Indian Ocean occurs at two spatial scales: whole lithosphere folding with wavelengths varying between 100 and 300 km, and compressional reactivation ...

On the origin of the North Pacific arcs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We present a new hypothesis that relates global plate tectonics to the formation of marginal basins, island arcs, spreading ridges and arc-shaped mountain belts around the North Pacific Ocean.

Will present day glacier retreat increase volcanic activity? Stress induced by recent glacier retreat and its effect on magmatism at the Vatnajokull ice cap, Iceland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Global warming causes retreat of ice caps and ice sheets. Can melting glaciers trigger increased volcanic activity? Since 1890 the largest ice cap of Iceland, Vatnajokull, with an area of similar to 8000 km(2), has been continuously retreating losing ...

Study on the Influence of Tectonic Stress on Stability of Horseshoe-Shaped Tunnels

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2021
While the tunnel is in the high tectonic stress environment and surrounding rock of tunnel has the characteristics of soft texture and stronger expansion, the preference of tunnel shape is horseshoe.

COGNITO - TECTONICS IN STRESS INDUCED EMOTIONAL BEHAVIOUR

open access: yesYMER Digital, 2021
The success of an institution is mainly dependent on its effective human capital and in execution of strategic sustainable HR functions. Currently, human resources are under colossal pressure to ascertain its value, facing severe demands to create an innovative, resultoriented workforce.

Neotectonics and tectonic stresses of the Sakhalin Island

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2017
The paper describes the neotectonics of the Sakhalin Island and analyzes the latest and recent tectonic stresses in the study area in order to establish their differences in the Amur and Okhotsk microplates, which boundary is confined to the Tym ...

Experimental Investigation on Mechanics and Seepage Characteristics of Tectonic and Intact Coal Containing Gas

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Coalbed methane is a double-edged sword with two attributes of energy and hazard in coal mines. Gas drainage is the most direct and effective measure for gas recovery and disaster prevention in coal mines, which is seriously affected by the mechanics and

Slip inversion along inner fore-arc faults, eastern Tohoku, Japan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The kinematics of deformation in the overriding plate of convergent margins may vary across timescales ranging from a single seismic cycle to many millions of years.

Tectonic Stress as the Driving Mechanism for Dike Opening in an Oblique Rift Setting: A Deformation Model of the 2021 Fagradalsfjall Dike, Iceland

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Repeated dike‐intrusions often occur in zones where extensional stress has accumulated. Still, geodetic modeling of observed dike‐induced ground deformation often ignores the contribution of tectonic stress. On the obliquely spreading Reykjanes Peninsula,
