Slab breakoff A model for syncollisional magmatism and tectonics in the Alps
Slab breakoff is the buoyancy-driven detachment of subducted oceanic lithosphere from the light continental lithosphere that follows it during continental collision. In a recent paper Davies and von Blanckenburg [1994] have assessed the physical conditions leading to breakoff by quantitative thermomechanical modeling and have predicted various consequences in the evolution of mountain belts. Br...
متن کاملImmediate and delayed signal of slab breakoff in Oligo/Miocene Molasse deposits from the European Alps
High-resolution 32-20 Ma-old stratigraphic records from the Molasse foreland basin situated north of the Alps, and Gonfolite Lombarda conglomerates deposited on the southern Alpine margin, document two consecutive sedimentary responses - an immediate and delayed response - to slab breakoff beneath the central Alps c. 32-30 Ma ago. The first signal, which occurred due to rebound and surface upli...
متن کاملGravitational instabilities and faster evolving density perturbations
The evolution of inhomogeneities in a spherical collapse model is studied by expanding the Einstein equation in powers of inverse radial parameter. In the linear regime, the density contrast is obtained for flat, closed and open universes. In addition to the usual modes, an infinite number of new growing modes are contained in the solutions for pressureless open and closed universes. In the non...
متن کاملThermoacoustic Instabilities: Modelling and Control
The goal of this study was twofold. First, modelling strategies were proposed to characterize the dynamics driving the thermoacoustic instabilities in a swirl-stabilized premixed burner. Secondly, this model was used to synthesize controllers in order to apply active control strategies to suppress this phenomenon. An experimental combustor model based on acoustic properties of the combustion ch...
متن کاملIonospheric slab thickness – analysis, modelling and monitoring
A review of the climatological and storm-time behaviour of the ionospheric slab thickness is presented based on long-time observations at a European mid-latitude site, Dourbes (50.1°N, 04.6°E), and on published results from other studies. An operational electron density and slab thickness monitoring system, established to provide real-time characterisation of the local ionospheric dynamics, is ...
