Аннотация
It is shown that most marsquakes epicenters are located in the zones of extension and fairly high shear stresses associated with deviation of the planet from hydrostatic equilibrium. In this paper, nonhydrostatic stresses in the interior of Venus are calculated for two types of models: an elastic model and a model with a lithosphere of variable thickness (150–500 km) covering a weakened layer that has partially lost its elastic properties. Numerical modeling of the system of elastic equilibrium equations for a gravitating planet is carried out with a step of 1° × 1° degrees in latitude and longitude down to a depth of 480 km, which is the first phase transition in the mantle. The boundary conditions of the problem are the topography and the gravitational field of the planet. In general, the level of nonhydrostatic stress on Venus is not very high. On the surface and in the crust, the highest shear stresses are observed in the region of the Maxwell Montes on Ishtar Terra. Beneath the Maxwell Montes, shear stresses in the crust reach 80 MPa and compressive stresses, 125–150 MPa, depending on the model. Tensile stresses around this area are about 20 MPa. The highest tensile stresses occur in the regions beneath such structures as Lavinia Planitia, Sedna Planitia, and Aino Planitia.
