Abstract
⺠Diurnal stresses are not always virtually elastic. ⺠A strongly dissipative warm ice layer causes a westward shift of diurnal stress patterns. ⺠A small obliquity substantially influences the orientation of diurnal stresses. ⺠Relaxation of ocean-ice boundary is only important for NSR if the ice shell behaves elastically. ⺠The large diversity of surface lineaments on Europa suggests variations in the rate of NSR.
