Mantle Control of Plate Boundary Deformation
The seismic wavefield propagating along the recently instrumented Pacific-North American plate boundary (California) displays remarkable variation, with regional shear waves arriving at coastal stations up to 20 seconds earlier than equidistant stations in eastern California. Broadband modeling of this data reveals that coastal paths sample fast upper mantle typical of Miocene-aged ocean plate ...
متن کاملAn integrated global model of present-day plate motions and plate boundary deformation
S U M M A R Y In this paper we present a global model (GSRM-1) of both horizontal velocities on the Earth’s surface and horizontal strain rates for almost all deforming plate boundary zones. A model strain rate field is obtained jointly with a global velocity field in the process of solving for a global velocity gradient tensor field. In our model we perform a least-squares fit between model ve...
متن کاملFree Vibration of a Thick Sandwich Plate Using Higher Order Shear Deformation Theory and DQM for Different Boundary Conditions
In this paper, the effect of different boundary conditions on the free vibration analysis response of a sandwich plate is presented using the higher order shear deformation theory. The face sheets are orthotropic laminated composites that follow the first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) based on the Rissners-Mindlin (RM) kinematics field. The motion equations are derived considering the c...
متن کاملMotion and rigidity of the Pacific Plate and implications for plate boundary deformation
[1] Using up to 11 years of data from a global network of Global Positioning System (GPS) stations, including 12 stations well distributed across the Pacific Plate, we derive present-day Euler vectors for the Pacific Plate more precisely than has previously been possible from space geodetic data. After rejecting on statistical grounds the velocity of one station on each of the Pacific and North...
متن کاملCloth Deformation Modelling Using a Plate Bending Model
Modelling and simulation of cloth deformation are of great importance in computer graphics and engineering applications. Although many models have been developed, problems still exist. No model so far can accurately describe both motion and deformation of cloth in a unified equation. And the equations for the in-plane deformation of cloth have yet to be developed. In this paper, a model for bot...
