stress state of lithosphere

Shape of the Earth and geodynamics

Aim. The aim of this work is multifold: to show, at a qualitative and approximately quantitative level, how the process of the evolutionary self-development of the planet is a result of the action of gravitational-rotational and endogenous forces, and to show that mass redistribution leads to the transformation of the figure of the lithosphere from a biaxial ellipsoid to a triaxial and vice versa; to show changes in compression, axial rotation speed, and pole displacement in geological time; and to determine the valid mass forces that cause the dynamics of the stress state
