FALSIFICATION OF THE EULERIAN MOTIONS OF LITHOSPHERIC PLATES

Biuletyn Państwowego Instytutu Geologicznego, 2016
Morgan (1968) tested the supposed Eulerian motion of lithospheric plates by calculation on a circuit around the Indian Ocean triple junction. The present analysis performed on a physical model shows that on a non-expanding Earth, the reconstructed Southwest Indian Ocean Ridge fails to close as it should according to the allegedly positive result of ...

Models of lithospheric-scale deformation during plate collision: effects of indentor shape and lithospheric thickness.

Tectonophysics, 2000
Abstract Analogue models designed to test the effects of lithosphere thickness and indentor shape during continental collision indicate that strength and density differences between lithosphere types control structural vergence during collision. Models presented here include layers of putty and sand to form four-, three- and two-layer lithosphere ...

Properties of oceanic lithosphere: Revised plate cooling model predictions

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2012
Abstract A new analysis of plate cooling models indicates that the properties of oceanic lithosphere may need to be reevaluated, or that additional phenomena beyond the conditions of simple mineral physics plate models are important. Thermal models with constant and variable mineral physics properties are formally analyzed for fits against recently ...

Stage Pole Distribution for Meso-Cenozoic Lithospheric Plate Rotation

2019
The main features of stage pole distribution are investigated. Three areas of localization of stage poles related to the Mesozoic-Cenozoic plate kinematics are established. These areas coincide with the areas of upwelling flows in the lower mantle. Using statistical centers of the cluster, the major continental fractures and sea-floor transform faults ...
