“…These procedures allow the reconstruction of the reduced stress field that carries information about the stress orientation and the ratios between principal stresses. Inversion of focal mechanism datasets became a common task in studies aimed at constrain seismotectonic stress field in active tectonic areas (CareyGailhardis and Mercier, 1992;Gillard and Wyss, 1995;Hardebeck and Hauksson, 2001;Massa, 2003;Angelier and Baruah, 2009;De Matteis et al, 2012) and more recently also in volcanic environments (Wyss et al, 1992;Cocina et al, 1997;D'Auria et al, 2014a,b;Plateaux et al, 2014). A wide range of graphical and analytical methods were proposed by authors in last decades (e.g., Angelier and Mechler, 1977;Gephart and Forsyth, 1984;Carey-Gailhardis and Mercier, 1987;Lisle, 1987Lisle, , 1988Michael, 1987;Angelier, 1990Angelier, , 2002Rivera and Cisternas, 1990;D'Auria and Massa, 2015).…”
