Abstract

A new graphical method is developed to determine the direction of the maximum resolved shear stress on a fault plane. It differs from existing graphical methods in using the direction perpendicular to the maximum resolved shear. It is based upon the theory of vector manipulation, making the proposed method more straightforward and more graphical, and, hence, we believe more accessible.
