A stress memory effect in olivine at upper mantle pressures and temperatures

The Kaiser effect, which is known as a stress memory effect, predicts that seismic events occur only when the previous maximum stress is exceeded. Therefore, the Kaiser effect has been applied for the estimation of the magnitude of "in situ" stress on crustal rocks in the community of geotechnical engineering (including forecasting earthquakes).
