Control of Subduction Zone Age and Size on Flat Slab Subduction

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Flat slab subduction is an enigmatic style of subduction where the slab attains a horizontal orientation for up to several hundred kilometers below the base of the overriding plate.

Stiffness, Vibration, and Strength of Flat Slab and Flat Plate Lightweight Concrete Slabs

open access: yesJournal of Engineering
Flat slabs made of two-way reinforced concrete are a common, effective, and affordable structural method. Thin layer slabs and lightweight are of great importance in modern building construction without the need to increase the cross-section of columns,

Slab underthrusting is the primary control on flat-slab size. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Adv
Flat subduction, an intermittent phenomenon along active margins, arises from well-known causes, yet the mechanisms driving its expansion remain poorly understood. The prevailing view suggests that trenchward continental motion drives slab overthrusting, causing the flat slab to expand oceanward.

Development of Flat Slab – Column Interaction with Different Thickness [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
Flat slab – column connection has received much attention in recent years due to its simplicity of construction where beam is not required to support the slab.

Transient Injection of Flow: How Torn and Bent Slabs Induce Unusual Mantle Circulation Patterns Near a Flat Slab

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
Torn and bent slabs are usually associated with flat‐slab subduction where the descending plate develops a horizontal geometry beneath the overlying continent.

Geodynamic models of Indian continental flat slab subduction with implications for the topography of the Himalaya-Tibet region [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
The slab structure and high elevation of the Himalaya-Tibet region and their underlying mechanisms have been widely discussed. Many studies interpret a flat slab segment of Indian continental lithosphere located below the overriding plate, but ...

S‐Wave Receiver Function Analysis of the Pampean Flat‐Slab Region: Evidence for a Torn Slab

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2018
Flat‐slab subduction is an atypical form of subduction where the downgoing plate assumes a low‐angle or subhorizontal geometry as it descends beneath the overriding plate.

Progressive Collapse Analysis Of Flat Slab Buildings With Post-Punching Effect [PDF]

open access: yesمهندسی عمران شریف, 2021
The reinforced concrete flat slab is one of the types of floor systems used to construct residential, office and parking buildings. Because of the direct transfer of floor loads to columns, flat slabs are susceptible to punching failure in slab-column ...
