Description for Subduction
hardcover. Deals with the quantitative physical modeling of subduction and subduction-related processes. This book presents a description of the modeling method, results from model experiments, theoretical analysis of results on the basis of continuum mechanics, and their geodynamic interpretation. Series: Modern Approaches in Geophysics. Num Pages: 217 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHVG; RBGF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 14. Weight in Grams: 1110.
This book is devoted to the quantitative physical modeling of subduction and subduction-related processes. It presents a coherent description of the modeling method (including similarity criteria, and a novel applied experimental technique), results from model experiments, theoretical analysis of results on the basis of continuum mechanics, and their geodynamic interpretation. Subduction is modeled in general as well as applied to particular regions using both 2-D and 3-D approaches, with both slab-push and slab-pull driving forces. The modeling covers all stages from subduction initiation to `death', different regimes of subduction producing back ... Read more
