An updated compilation of earthquake locations and focal mechanism solutions from the International Seismological Centre and Preliminary Determination of Earthquakes is the …
Increased interest in the two-and three-dimensional geometries and development of faults and other types of fractures in rock has led to an increasingly bewildering terminology. Here …

Abstract Analysis of tectonic stress from the inversion of fault kinematic and earthquake focal mechanism data is routinely done using a wide variety of direct inversion, iterative and grid …
The estimation of the stress-field orientation from focal mechanisms of earthquakes is a relevant tool to understand crustal mechanics and the physics of earthquakes. In global …
