Analysis of the Influence of Thermal Loading on the Behaviour of the Earth’s Crust

The article focuses on the deformation and strain-stress analysis of Earth’s crust under external thermal loading. More specifically, influence cyclic changes in surface temperature field stress displacement inside over a two-year time span is investigated. finite element program MSC.Marc Mentat was used to calculate stresses displacements. For practical reasons, simplified as planar, piecewise homogeneous, isotropic model (plane strain), time-varying functions illumination (thermal radiation) from Sun are considered local isotropy sections model. Interaction between mantle defined by Winkler elastic foundation. By applying probabilistic approach (Monte Carlo Method), new stochastic displacements information crustal relative were obtained. results proved heating plate tectonics.
