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 arc extension and  compression, blocking of subduction and jumps of subduction zone,  arc-continent collision and continental subduction. \u003cbr\u003e  This work is for geologists and geophysicists interested in  geodynamics of the convergent plate boundaries and in mechanics of the  lithosphere. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-10\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401044110\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-0952-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 217\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44398587936908,"sku":"9789401044110","price":152.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401044110.jpg?v=1755438353","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789401044110","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
