Slip and Dilation Tendency Analysis of Neal Hot Springs Geothermal Area
Slip and Dilation Tendency in focus areas
Critically stressed fault segments have a relatively high likelihood of acting as fluid flow conduits (Sibson, 1994). As such, the tendency of a fault segment to slip (slip tendency; Ts; Morris et al., 1996) or to dilate (dilation tendency...

Characterizing favourable structural settings of geothermal reservoirs in extensional regions: Enhanced exploration strategies
Exploration of geothermal systems is commonly hampered by the risk of unsuccessful drilling. A major problem in selecting well sites is that the favorable settings of known systems are generally not adequately characterized. This is particularly important in amagmatic regions, wh...
