Stress inversion methods employed by structural geologists for estimating a regional stress
tensor from populations of faults containing slickenlines rely on the basic assumption that …

A general synthesis of the recent and present stress situation and evolution in the Iberian
Peninsula was obtained from microstructural and seismological analysis. The stress …

The Iberian microcontinent and its connected oceanic crust are affected by deformations
related to the Eurasian‐African plate boundary. Active stress inversions from populations of …

We describe the Gauss method for reconstructing paleostress tensors from heterogeneous
fault-slip data. We define compatibility measure and compatibility function, which verify the …

We review the evolution of concepts on and methods of estimating the state of stress from
fault movements. Theories of failure in isotropic materials suggested a simple geometrical …

We compiled 123 focal mechanisms from various sources for Tunisia and adjacent regions
up to Sicily, to image the current stress field in the Maghrebides chain (from Tunisia to Sicily) …

The trans‐Mexican volcanic belt is an active volcanic arc related to subduction along the
Middle America trench. The central part of the belt is being deformed by the Chapala‐Tula …

The Spanish Central System is a Cenozoic pop-up with an E–W to NE–SW orientation that
affects all the crust (thick-skinned tectonics). It shows antiform geometry in the upper crust …

Paleostress Inversion Techniques: Methods and Applications for Tectonics is an ideal
reference for both academic and industry researchers in the Earth Sciences. The book …

The interpretation of kinematic data from microstructural observations has led many authors
to propose a complex dynamic development for the eastern Betic Cordillera from the Late …
