Shear patterns of the earth's crust

FAV Meinesz - Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1947 - Wiley Online Library
There is much evidence of the existence of a system of shear planes in the greatest part of
the Earth's crust, and it seems likely that some planetary cause must have brought it about. …

Changes of deflections of the plumb-line brought about by a change of the reference-ellipsoid

FAV Meinesz - Bulletin Géodésique (1946-1975), 1950 - Springer
The preceding paper deals with the changes in the deflections of the plumb-line caused by
a shift of the ellipsoid of reference. It seems useful to extend this along similar lines to the w~ …

Discussion of “Shear patterns of the Earth's crust”

FAV Meinesz - Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1947 - Wiley Online Library
The crustal shear pattern proves the existence of a rigid, elastic crust of considerable strength
in which distortional forces of importance must have occurred. As no handy terms exists for …
