   Geophysical Stress Accumulation and Release
   Geophysical forces drive the accumulation and release of strain energy within the planet's lithosphere and asthenosphere. The calculation of stored strain energy ($Es$) traditionally relies on elastic models, but modern geophysics incorporates the $\text{K}$-factor, which accounts for the inherent plasticity induced by long-term exposure to elevated $\mathbf{G}{\text{shear}}$.
   The K-factor ($\kappa$) represents the material's predisposi…
