In a previous paper (Chinnery, 1961) an investigation of the deformation of the ground around a strike-slip fault was described. This work is now extended to a calculation of the change in stress distribution that is brought about by such a fault. Co

A secondary fault is defined as a fracture which arises as a direct result of movement on a master transcurrent fault. Some previous approaches to the study of secondary faulting are discussed, and fallacies in the arguments of McKinstry (1953) and M

Recent theoretical expressions for the change in stress distribution caused by strike-slip faulting are applied to five real faults, and estimates are made of the maximum shear stress relieved in each case. The calculated values lie between 107 and 1

The Red Lake greenstone belt is Archaean in age (older than 2.5 billion years) and is located in the Superior province of the Canadian Precambrian Shield. It is a fairly typical greenstone belt, being composed of a complex assemblage of lavas, sedime

A rectangular dislocation surface (i.e., a surface across which there is a discontinuity in the displacement vector) is used as a model of a vertical transcurrent fault. The results of Steketee (1958a) are employed to derive, in analytical form, the

A method is given for the calculation of terrain corrections for airborne measurements of the vertical gradient of gravity. This includes a short account of the theory concerned, a description of the practical procedure, a complete set of numerical t

The results of two previous papers by Chinnery published in 1963 and 1964 are used to calculate the distribution of stress that is present after the formation of a strike-slip fault. The pattern obtained shows that although the initial stress is redu

The results of an earlier paper (Chinnery, 1961) are used in this discussion of the nature of the vertical displacements that should accompany movement on a transcurrent fault. In spite of the inadequacies of the model, it is shown that the uplift an

There has been considerable discussion in recent years of the kind of stress changes that occur at the focus of an earthquake as fracture takes place. Two mechanisms consisting of stress patterns in the form of a single couple with moment (nucleus I)
