Analyses of the Velebit Mountain Ridge Crests
نویسنده
چکیده
Generally the ridge crests spread in the dinaridic direction that is NW-SE what is mainly the characteristic of the older tectonic phase. The turn point in morphogenesis of the External Dinarides and thus of the Velebit Mt. occurs with the change in the shift of the Adriatic microplate toward N and NNW what is reflected on the orientation and morphology of the ridge crests as well as on the other relief form. The analyses of ridge crests are based on three main criteria: the analysis of orientation, length and the analysis of relatively homogeneous zones.

An Analysis of Isostasy in the Worlds Oceans 2. Midocean Ridge Crests
Cross-spectral techniques are used to analyze the relationship between gravity and bathymetry at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the East Pacific Rise crests. The resulting transfer functions were used to study the nature of the isostatic mechanism operative at these ridge crests. The most satisfactory results were obtained for models in which the oceanic lithosphere is treated as a thin elastic pla...
متن کاملComparison of ridge expansion and ridge splitting techniques for narrow alveolar ridge in a Swine cadaver model.
Ridge splitting and ridge expansion have been used to expand narrow alveolar ridges. Piezosurgical ridge splitting involves separating the atrophic crests with piezosurgical inserts. Ridge expansion with motor-driven expanders was proposed to achieve the cortical dilation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of ridge gain by ridge expansion or ridge splitting. Eighteen (36 ra...
متن کاملSimulating orographic rainfall with a limited-area, non-hydrostatic atmospheric model under idealized forcing
A modified version of an operational 3dimensional, non-hydrostatic, limited-area atmospheric model (MM5) was used to perform high-resolution, idealized simulations of the interaction of an infinitely long single ridge with a steady, lateral large-scale wind field. The effect of different mountain ridge dimensions, wind speeds and patterns and moisture profiles on the quantity and distribution o...
متن کاملErosional Furrows Formed During the Lateral Blast at Mount St. Helens, May 18, 1980
Nearly horizontal, quasi-periodic erosional features of 7-m average transverse wavelength and of order 100-m length occur in scattered locations from 3.5 to 9 km from the crater at Mount St. Helens under deposits of the lateral blast of May 18, 1980. We attribute the erosional features to scouring by longitudinal vortices resulting from flow instabilities induced by complex topography, namely, ...

Objective: Alveolar ridge preservation in patients with inadequate bone volume is one treatment option for successful implant placement and can be done by using bone graft materials. On the other hand, Ceno Bone has been recently produced by Hamanand Saz Baft Kish Co. as a bone bioimplant of allograft origin. This study aimed to assess the clinical, histologic and histomorphometric results of...
