Tectonic evolution of a continental collision zone: A thermomechanical numerical model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We model evolution of a continent-continent collision and draw some parallels with the tectonic evolution of the Himalaya. We use a large-scale visco-plasto-elastic thermomechanical model that has a free upper surface, accounts for erosion and deposition
