3-D geomechanical–numerical model of the contemporary crustal stress state in the Alberta Basin (Canada)
2014
Solid Earth
<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> In the context of examining the potential usage of safe and sustainable geothermal energy in the Alberta Basin, whether in deep sediments or crystalline rock, the understanding of the in situ stress state is crucial. It is a key challenge to estimate the 3-D stress state at an arbitrarily chosen point in the crust, based on sparsely distributed in situ stress data. <br><br> To address this challenge, we present a large-scale 3-D geomechanical–numerical model (700
