The effects of mechanical stresses on the magnetization of the earth's crust can be classified in two categories:(a) the reversible effect which disappears when the stress is removed; and (b) the irreversible effect which causes an irreversible enhancement or an irreversible demagnetization of remanent magnetization. Reversible effects take place in the magnetic susceptibility (κ) and in the magnetically hard remanent magnetization (j hr) such as thermoremanent and chemical remanent magnetizations. The longitudinal uniaxial compression (σ) which is along the direction of magnetization results in a decrease of magnetization whereas the transverse uniaxial compression (σ⊥) which is perpendicular to the direction of magnetization causes an increase of magnetization. Theoretically, the reversible effects are due to the rotation of spontaneous magnetization within individual magnetic domains impressed by the compression. For small values of compression (σ≲ 100 kg/cm 2), these effects can be approximately expressed by κ(σ)= κ 0 (1− β′ σ), κ⊥(σ⊥)= κ 0 (1+ 1 2 β′ σ⊥), J HR (σ)= J 0 HR (1− β ″σ) and J⊥ HR (σ⊥)= J 0 HR (1+ 1 2 β ″σ⊥) where β= 0.5· 10− 4~ 5· 10− 4 cm 2/kg and β= 0.3· 10− 4~ 1· 10− 4 cm 2/kg, for igneous rocks. A uniaxial tension causes the inversed effects. The irreversible effect is related to the soft isothermal remanent magnetization (j sr). An application and a release of a on a rock in the presence of a magnetic field (H) results in an increase of remanent magnetization in the case of both the longitudinal and transverse effect, where the transverse effect is a little smaller (by 10~ 25%) than the longitudinal one. Both the longitudinal and transverse compressions cause an irreversible demagnetization of the soft isothermal remanent magnetization. In this case also the transverse effect is a little smaller than the longitudinal one. Theoretically, these effects are due to the irreversible displacement of the 90° domain walls. For small values of compression (σ≲ 100 kg/cm 2) and magnetic fields (tH≲ 10 Oe), the effects can be approximately expressed by J 0 SR (σ∗)= CHσ∗, J 0⊥ SR (σ⊥∗)= 3 4 CHσ⊥∗, J SR (σ∗∗)= J 0 SR (1− ασ∗∗ H) and J⊥ SR (σ perp;∗∗)= J 0⊥ SR (1− 3ασ⊥∗∗ 4H), where σ∗ and σ∗∗ denote the irreversible effect of σ and C= 0.2· 10− 6~ 11· 10− 6 emu/Oe/kg/cm 2 and α= 0.02~ 0.1 Oe cm 2/kg for igneous rocks. A uniaxial tension causes the same effects. In the case of the earth's crust which has been repeatedly stressed in similar ways in the presence of the permanent geomagnetic field, the irreversible effects can be ignored compared with the reversible effects.
