Using the engineering finite element modelling software package
ABAQUS I have modelled the
horizontal compressive stress of the Indo-Australian plate for time
periods dating from the Eocene. This work was carried out as part of
the Tectonic Reactivation and Palaeo-Stress (TRAPS) project in
collaboration with Shell,
BHP Billiton,
Woodside Petroleum and
SANTOS in order to create a
framework for predicting the tectonic reactivation of faults. This
research has also been utilised by gold mining companies to assist
exploration and may also prove very useful to seismic studies of
Australia.
