Modeling shear wave splitting due to stress-induced anisotropy, with an application to Mount Asama Volcano, Japan

We use numerical modeling to investigate the proposed stress-based origin for changing anisotropy at Mount Asama Volcano, Japan. Stress-induced anisotropy occurs when deviatoric stress conditions are applied to rocks which are permeated by microcracks and compliant pore space, leading to an anisotro...
