Description of the research topic:
The linear pattern of a tectonic map can be considered as subsequent curves or polylines, which are suitable for further mathematical analysis. With the general parameters of the tectonics and the surrounding lithology a mathematical model can be established, which describes the stress-field of the mapped region. The primary approach is to generate a polyline database from archive maps and satellite images of the tectonic objects then work out the method which can produce the stress-field estimation. Validation methods are given.
Required language skills: angol Further requirements: Knowledge of numerical methods is essential. Affinity of geology is essential. A base knowledge of programming or willingness of learning primitive programming skills is a plus.
