Mesozoic–Cenozoic stress field magnitude in Sichuan Basin, China and its adjacent areas and the implication on shale gas reservoir: Determination by acoustic emission in rocks

China Geology, 2020
: The Sichuan Basin is one of the vital basins in China, boasting abundant hydrocarbon reservoirs. To clarify the intensity of the tectonic stress field of different tectonic episodes since the Mesozoic and to identify the regional dynamic background of ...

Block Motion Changes in Japan Triggered by the 2011 Great Tohoku Earthquake [PDF]

, 2017
Plate motions are governed by equilibrium between basal and edge forces. Great earthquakes may induce differential static stress changes across tectonic plates, enabling a new equilibrium state.

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

Buildings
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 ...

Cenozoic paleostress field of tectonic evolution in Qaidam Basin, northern Tibet

Open Geosciences, 2021
This article analyzes the stress fields in the Qaidam Basin since the entire Cenozoic using finite element numerical simulations. The stress fields are investigated by analyzing tectonic joints and the GPS velocity field in the basin.

Tectonic interpretation of the connectivity of a multiscale fracture system in limestone [PDF]

, 2016
This paper studies the statistics and tectonism of a multiscale natural fracture system in limestone. The fracture network exhibits a self‐similar characteristic with a correlation between its power law length exponent a and fractal dimension D, i.e., a ≈

New craniodental materials of Falcarius utahensis (Theropoda: Therizinosauria) reveal patterns of intraspecific variation and cranial evolution in early coelurosaurians

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite documented ecomorphological shifts toward an herbivorous diet in several coelurosaurian lineages, the evolutionary tempo and mode of these changes remain poorly understood, hampered by sparse cranial materials for early representatives of major clades. This is particularly true for Therizinosauria, with representative crania best known
