... Energy-based methods, such as Alford rotation ( Alford, 1986 ), is a common practice for azimuthal shear anisotropy processing. FSA determined from the shear anisotropy processing is a main output which is interpreted to be along the maximum horizontal stress if the formation was stress-induced...

... a hole with controlled diameter, shape, depth and at any orientation bypassing near field stress zone is achievable with laser regardless of the strength of the rock and maximum horizontal stress. The thermal energy generated from the laser weaken the formation as presented in Young's Modulus...

... for several details such as higher degree of fracturing in doubly plunging structures and fracture density as a function of the angle between fold axis and maximum horizontal stress at the time of fracturing. Fault reactivation and structural growth in discrete pulses seem to be prerequisite for the typical...
