STRESSINVERSE Software for Stress Inversion

The STRESSINVERSE code uses an iterative method to find the nodal planes most consistent with the stress field given fault frictional properties. STRESINVERSE inverts the strike, rake and dip from moment tensor solutions for the in-situ state of stress. The code iteratively solves...
